I am thrilled to announce that GenFest 2009 will be in Shelbyville, IN, hosted by the
Shelby County Genealogical Society. Lynne King and I met with them in August to confirm
their involvement and hear what they have planned. What a fantastic group and so full of
wonderful ideas for the 2009 event. Shelbyville has the perfect set up with all their
primary partners (Historical Soc., museum, library, etc.) located within a block of each
other. They are busting at the seams with any amenity attendees will need to make a trip
to GenFest 2009 worthwhile.
I will be sending more details very soon, along with a website link so you can watch
GenFest 2009 grow and begin making your plans early.
More great news! GenFest 2010 is already in early planning stages and will be back in
Muncie, hosted by the Muncie Public Library. As you know, they hosted our very first
event and are eager to do it again. I owe them a big debt of gratitude for taking a
chance on Mike's and my event.
