Poster Session - May 2024

Poster Session Criteria & Submission Details...

We are seeking RGS members to create a poster/poster board about their genealogy/family history personal research or expertise and share it at the May 2024 General Meeting. Think Science Fair, but it will be a Family History/Genealogy Fair. No in front of the room presentations. You'll have a table to present your work, talk to other RGS members, answer their questions. Apply for for your poster to be considered by completing the form below. This will be fun! Please consider sharing your findings. We will award the top three posters with a prize! 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners will be able to choose from a set of genealogy reference/resource books at the May event! Twenty-five posters will be selected for our first RGS Poster Session.
