Third Thursday Brown Bag Lectures
Held each month on the third Thursday at noon, these presentations are designed to be short (30-45 minutes) and narrowly-focused. They are less formal than a class, and meant to be interactive. Feel free to bring your lunch, and eat while you're learning!
Thursday, October 20 - noon
FamilySearch Memories - New features, new ways to capture and share your family's story
RootsMagic User Group
