If some more pople do not register by Thursday or Friday, the WRITING AND
PUBLISHING YOUR FAMILY HISTORY Seminar scheduled for Angelina College on
3/1/03 will be canceled for lack of interest. There is still time to
register for it or the one on GENEALOGY AND TECHNOLOGY scheduled for 3/08/03
which also may be canceled due to lack of interested.
If this seemingly lack of interest continues and is reflected in
registration for the summer conference, July 24-26, 2003, and considering
that the college budget has been cut by 7%, it is very likely that no other
genealogy events will be sponsored by AC after that date. This would be a
big blow to genealogy programs in East Texas and the Southwest because
Angelina College is the only public college in this area sponsoring programs
of this type. Capacity for any genealogy event is 125 people, but we must
have at least six people to make a class. These events are important to the
genealogy community regardless of who teaches them.
In the meantime, Mr. Johnson and I have two very fine all-day seminars that
can be booked through the college for a group will to pay travel expenses
and the regular adjunct instructor contact hour fee. Just as long as we can
talk about and promote Angelina College. Two reasonably priced seminars for
your group within a reasonable travel distance of Lufkin, Texas.
I am a regular member of this list. I am also an adjunct instructor in
genealogy at Angelina College in Lufkin, Texas. This is what I do in
addition to working on mine and my husband's families. Please pass this
information along to anyone whom you think might be interested. The bulk
mail notice was mailed out last week. Perhaps a little late, but then the
college calendar/time-table and the time-table for genealogy events does not
always match up.
Registration form and contact information are further down in the message.
You can call in that you would like to come and pay when you get there if we
have enough people to make the class.
