The Southern California Genealogical Society announces its Call for Presentations for the 47th Annual Southern California Genealogy Jamboree, to be held Friday through Sunday, June 3-5, 2016 at the Los Angeles Marriott Burbank Airport Hotel, Burbank, California. The Pre-Conference day on Thursday, June 2, 2016, will include a full day of DNA presentations and In-Depth Workshops.

This Call for Presentations pertains to the Jamboree conference, Pre-Conference DNA/Workshop day, as well as the 2016 Jamboree Extension Series webinar program. Presentations will only be accepted through the online portal August 20 - September 30, 2015.

Jamboree draws family historians and genealogists at all experience levels, from the beginner to the professional; from the first time conference attendee to conference veterans. The Jamboree Extension Series draws an international audience comprised of all skill levels. We encourage the submission of all levels of sessions.

The 2016 Jamboree theme is "Giving to the Future by Preserving the Past", and the theme for the Pre-Conference DNA day is "The Future of the Past: Genetic Genealogy 2016."  We welcome submissions utilizing our theme and promoting the expansion of our knowledge and skills.  Our heritage focus is on German and Eastern European ancestry. Presentations on all topics will be considered. New presentations are encouraged.
