NERGC 2021 IS GOING VIRTUAL!

 WE’RE GOING VIRTUAL!

 The COVID-19 pandemic has caused us to take a serious look at our plans for 2021.  For health and safety reasons, we’ve decided to present the conference in a virtual format. Planning is underway to offer the same high-quality lectures and programs you’re accustomed to, but from the comfort of your home.

Consider these advantages:

·       On-demand presentations – No difficult decisions about which lecture to attend! All pre-recorded presentations are available for you to view whenever you choose.

·       Conference extended -  Plenty of time to listen to any and all the recorded sessions.

·       Safe, convenient and less expensive – No risky and costly travel, no reservations, no trip delay.

·       Renowned genealogists cover a variety of topics.

·       No hotel or meal costs.

 Plans are also in progress to present the other features you’ve enjoyed in the past: Ancestors Road Show, Society Fair, Special Interest Groups, Queries, and even a virtual Exhibit Hall!  We are exploring options to support persons with special needs.

 

Registration for NERGC 2021 won't begin until later this fall, but you can start making plans now.  Continue to follow our E-zines, Facebook page, and Blog to keep up-to-date on the planning and the excitement of this conference.
