Annual Free Hayden FHC Seminar Was A Success

You know, Coeur d'Alene is only 30 miles east of Spokane.......... a fast and short drive on I-90. And those EWGS members who attended the free seminar at the Hayden Family History Center last Saturday got their money's worth........ and a wonderful free lunch besides. Besides myself, Inez Hodge, Mary Holcomb, Ardis Storms and several others, EWGS was well represented but more could-have-should-have taken advantage of this great learning day.

Connie Godak is the director of the Hayden Family History Center, which sponsors this annual event. The Hayden FHC offers weekly (Tuesday) free genealogy-related classes. Google to their website for more information.
