Upcoming Meeting: 

Saturday, November 14  –  Zoom only! 
Creating a Legacy from Family Papers 
Many of us share a pressing concern – we possess family documents, artifacts, and oral histories, but have no idea what do do with them. Claire Gebben, author and certified genealogist,  leads participants through examining formats, ideas, organizational tips, and inspiration to ensure the stories of our ancestors, and our own life stories, are not lost. Zoom Only.

See *Calendar of Meetings & Events* for other scheduled events/meetings.

  • MONTHLY MEETINGS  are typically held on the SECOND SATURDAY of most months, beginning at 10:00. Social time begins at 9:30. Monthly meetings held in-person are usually held at the Tri-Area Community Center (10 W Valley Rd, Chimacum).  Some meetings will be hybrid meetings (Zoom and in-person).  Late Fall and early Winter meetings are often Zoom-only.
