Partners and Friends of the SCGS
 The SCGS is a member of the Federation of Genealogical Societies.  

Monthly meetings are held in the upstairs meeting room of the Rehoboth Beach Public Library on 226 Rehoboth Avenue, Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. Special meetings will occasionally be held at other times.
See the calendar for coming events.

The SCGS schedules no general meetings during the summer months: June, July and August
Consider the  Computer special interest group Computer Bytes if you are interested in how to  use your computer to effectively manage your genealogy data.

 WATCH FOR IT--EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITY!

The upcoming fall session at Wilmington College’s Rehoboth Beach location will include a 4 week course on beginning genealogy taught by members from the SCGS.  The classes begin on Saturday, September 27 (1:00 pm to 3:00 pm) and end on Saturday, October 18.    Watch for the Wilmington College Fall brochure for more details and be sure to tell your friends.

   This also will be an excellent class for new members who want to learn more about doing research and understanding the benefits of good methods.
REMINDER!

The Federation of Genealogical Societies is holding its annual meeting in Philadelphia this year.  The dates are September 3-6, 2008.  The early bird (single day $95.00 and Full Conference $175.00) deadline is July 1.  The conference is packed with classes geared to all levels and interests of genealogists.
 
Some interest has been expressed to carpool for a day trip to the Conference.  Check out the brochure at www.fgs.org and see what sessions you would like to attend.  Jeanne Davis has agreed to take names of anyone interested in going up for a day so that we can determine best day and best form of transportation (carpool all the way, carpool to the train and then train, etc.).

The next FGS Conference will be in Kansas.  This is your opportunity to hear and learn from top-rated genealogists without a lot of travel involved.  If you are interested in going to Philadelphia’s conference, let Jeanne know.  She can be reached at jeanned1@verizon.net.
