October is National Family History Month!








October is National Family History Month and we are celebrating by having a Genealogy Jamboree!


This is a open forum style event. There will not be any formal speakers or presentations. We will have Jan Bony from Oregon GenWeb and Emma Jean Smith from the Daughters of the American Revolution present to answer any questions and spend the day with us discussing our favorite topic GENEALOGY!


This event is for all levels of genealogy researchers from beginners to advanced.


Those attending will have a chance to win some great door prizes too.


We will be giving away a HP Envy 4520 wireless printer, 2 - one year memberships to CGGS, Drew Smith's new book "Organize Your Genealogy", and a genealogy gift basket packed with genealogy tools, index's, pens, highlighters, clips and a 32GB Lexar Flash Drive.


So please come and join us. The jamboree is in the downstairs conference room at the


Columbia Gorge Discovery Center and bring a friend. this is a public event.
