There’s only a few days left
to catch extra savings on registration for the upcoming Ohio Genealogical Society (OGS) Conference. The conference, held in downtown Columbus, runs April
9-11, 2015, with workshops and events starting April 8.
In the course of three and a half days, OGS has 44 top-notch speakers offering nearly 100
presentations, workshops, luncheons, and roundtable discussions. Judy G. Russell, The Legal Genealogist, will present a brand new keynote address, plus four additional lectures.
I think the conference program looks flat-out amazing. Then again, I might a little partial to it. (Disclaimer: I’m serving as Program Chair, which means I’ve handled endless paperwork and emails with no pay. It also means I get to work with some of the best speakers and most dedicated volunteers in genealogy-land.)
Whether you’re just beginning
your family history search or a seasoned genealogist, or anywhere in-between,
you’re sure to find something of interest. Tracks include Problem-Solving Strategies, Technology Tools, Records & Resources,
DNA/Genetic Genealogy, Military Research, Sharing Family History, German Ancestors, African-American
& Southern Research, Organizing & Productivity, Methods for Success,
Preserving Your Heritage, Ohio Ancestors, Forensic Genealogy, and more.
By registering before the
March 18th early-bird deadline, you get:
- a $40 savings on full conference registration
- an electronic copy of the syllabus in advance, to help plan your time
- first chance at workshops and events that might sell out
So why wait? Visit the OGS 2015 Conference website for
more information and online registration. Oh, and if you just can’t decide now,
rest assured that you can still register right up to conference time, or even
at the door.
Hope to see you in Columbus
in April!
