How can genealogy and family history thrive -

Today's article from Dick Eastman on his free newsletter blog,  addresses the subject of improving and keeping family history and genealogy societies alive. In recent years the interest has grown enormously and the web blog "1000 Memories.com" has a great article for societies in coping with retaining membership and getting new members to join. You can read the artical at 1000 memories blog at http://1000memories.com/blog/106-family-history-month-genealogy-roundtable-survey-how-genealogy-can-thrive  .

Also, the Federation of Genealogical Societies has made two videos, one is reaching out to new communities and the other is on embracing social networks as part of promoting your society and genealogy. These videos can be viewed here: http://vimeo.com/23976923  .
