Call for Conference Volunteers!

The next annual BIFHSGO Family History Conference will be held 19-21 September 2008. The success of fee-based initiatives like the conference is directly related to the volunteer help that we get.

Please consider joining the volunteer team team for a few hours. You could work at the Welcome Desk, the Research/Computer Room, with set-up, helping with general duties or with the Marketplace. Volunteers get lunch free (Sat. and/or Sun) on a day that they have worked a shift of at least two hours. Friday, there is no catered lunch but daytime parking expenses could be reimbursed.

Volunteering is fun and gives you an excellent chance to get to know other BIFHSGO members. If you are interested in volunteering with BIFHSGO Conferences or other activities please contact the
