Why is a newsletter important?










We have been publishing our newsletter now for 42 years. The Columbia Gorge Genealogical Society has been in existence since 1977. Over the years it has become moderate size publication unlike when it was mailed to members "snail-mail". Technology has simplified communication.  

Why is a newsletter important?
Our newsletter is a communication tool to others in the community letting them know we care about preserving their family history as well as preserving historical records and events. 
This year we will be reaching out to 29 institutions and genealogical societies in North America exchanging newsletters and learning from other genealogical sources. 
Our newsletter is free can be download at:
