SOCCGS Announcements for October 2021

The SOCCGS Genealogy Reference Center is now OPEN!

Library hours are currently Tuesday – Saturday, 12noon – 5pm, and Docents are on duty to help you with your genealogy research.

We expect that many of you will be eager to access those locked records on FamilySearch and our other databases which we haven’t been able to use for the last year. To avoid long waits to use the computers, we have set up an online appointment system for our two genealogy computers.

To make an appointment for our genealogy computers, go to https://collecting404s.com/computer-reservations/ or click on the drop-down menu for the Research Center from the black menu bar at the top of our website, and then choose Computer Reservations.

The Annual Salt Lake City Research Trip is returning in 2022!

Salt Lake City trip dates for 2022 are set for March 20-27, 2022. See more information in our website in the Events tab: Salt Lake City Research Trip.

Membership

As temperatures begin to cool just a bit, our thoughts turn to fall, friends, football, and family. Consider the joy of sharing family stories and finding new family members when you give the gift of a membership in our Society. Let your friends and relatives discover for themselves the thrill of connecting with other genealogists, attending our Special Interest Group (SIG) meetings, and gleaning new knowledge from our guest speakers at our monthly general meetings. You’re just a few clicks away from giving a unique and very thoughtful gift. Whether you use on-line payment through our PayPal feature or download, print out, and mail a membership application, your membership will be confirmed promptly by our Membership Chair Lynn Souers. “We’re thrilled to welcome new members and appreciate the enthusiasm of new genealogists,” comments Lynn. “This really is a unique gift and a great way to celebrate families.”

For only $25/year ($30 joint membership) you will continue to receive access to our general meetings, guest speakers, and SIG’S plus our information-packed newsletter. That works out to $2.08 a month! What a great bargain!
