    Show and Tell

    DCAGS is excited to announce that we will return to an in-person event at the Church of the Latter Day Saints, on Segoe Rd, on Saturday, December 9th from 10am  to 12pm. for SHOW and TELL.  

    You are invited to  bring something from your genealogical research to share visibly with others. In the past people have brought  maps, picture albums, costuming from their ancestor’s country, family trees, objects used by their ancestors, charts, posters, recipes, books and/or articles about their ancestor, Civil War and other memorial objects, scrapbooks and many other items of interest.  The sky is the limit.  

    There will be treats and drinks to enjoy as you browse the presentation tables.  If you are able, you are invited to bring an ethnic treat from your favorite country.

    If you'd like to sign up for a show and tell and/or providing a treat you can email Barb Abbott at arbabbott330@gmail.com.

    We look forward to this informal gathering where we will learn a lot and enjoy comradery among each other.

    Masks are optional and welcome.
