Meeting: Monday, Oct. 14, 2013
7:00- 9:00 pm

Our Theme: “Back To The Basics”

This month we will explore the military records, city directories and review. We will update news on the release and features of Legacy 8.  As always, there will be time to practice and review the new skills as well as ask questions. You may want to bring your laptop or tablet to practice the skills and explore Legacy’s capabilities.

Whether you are a beginner or an expert, the Legacy Family Tree User Group is a forum to learn the basics of using this software program, answer questions to further your knowledge and efficiency and, to assist others with your expertise.

If you are considering Legacy Family Tree, the user group is a great way to explore the program to assist in your decision to use it or not.  All levels of ability are welcome to participate!

No rsvp is needed.  E-mail Barb Randall for more information at barbmran@aol.com.

[CA-SCGS] Volunteer Luncheon to be held Saturday, 5 Oct 2013

Volunteer Luncheon at SCGS Family Research Library
Saturday, 5 October 2013
11 am to 3 pm

SCGS Volunteers - Please join us at a party being held in YOUR honor.

SCGS would not exist without an exceptional staff of dedicated, knowledgeable volunteers. We are grateful to you for continuing a long tradition of volunteering that started when SCGS was founded 50 years ago.

Whether you donate your valuable time and talent every day, every week or just an hour here or there --  and whether it's at the Library, from home, or at the Marriott during Jamboree -- you’re invited to come party with us. It’s a great time to meet old friends and new, and you'll have a chance to take home a bright, shiny gift certificate for registration to the 2014 Jamboree.

This Luncheon is a time for volunteers to relax, have fun and celebrate our Society’s successes.  Come join the party!

The Society will provide the lunch, but we need a head count.
Please RSVP  by September 23:
