CALLING GENEALOGICAL SOCIETIES, HISTORICAL SOCIETIES, AND FAMILY ASSOCIATIONS

By

You are cordially invited to participate in the Virtual NERGC Society Fair, which be available online to conference attendees and the general public for 61 days, with live chat available on April 3 and May 16. Hundreds of family history researchers will be “attending” Virtual NERGC 2021. Participation in the Society Fair is limited to non-commercial entities. (Entities wishing to make sales during the conference are encouraged to consider becoming exhibitors by “renting a booth” in the virtual Exhibit Hall). You can include links to your website, Facebook page, Instagram, and YouTube channel. You can also choose chat times, allowing you to interact with conference participants potentially interested in what your group offers in the way of information, programs and research sources. People, as at an in-person event, may stop in for a few minutes or may linger longer throughout the day. Your Society and chat times will be placed on NERGC’s website, published in the weekly Newsletter, and listed in the Exhibit Hall. What a great opportunity to network! Don’t miss this unique way to show off your society and attract new members. For more information, please email Phyllis Day, Society Chair at ccphyl@gmail.com.
