Stronger Together!



Remember getting rope-burned-hands playing tug-o-war with a rope? And too often neither side "won," and sometimes one side got pulled into the mud! Remember?


If there is a job to be done, isn't it better to work together? Nobody's hands get rope-burned that way! And the job gets done!!


I LIVE IN SPOKANE AND AM AN ACTIVE MEMBER OF EWGS....... AS YOU READ THIS POST, SUBSTITUTE YOUR SOCIETY'S NAME!!!!


I'm aiming today to sorta follow-up on our EWGS January meeting..... dedicated to service...... service to EWGS. Are some of you still on the fence about stepping up to do something for EWGS?

WHY? WHY come/mix/join/support EWGS? Here's why:

  • EWGS people are "your kind" of people and are your friends.

  • EWGS people will welcome...and listen to.... your discovery-stories!

  • EWGS people have years of combined research knowledge and are always willing to help you. (But you gotta ask.)

  • EWGS meetings are FUN..... prizes, contests, raffles and cookies!

  • EWGS meetings are INFORMATIVE..... the EWGS board strives most diligently to offer programs of worth and interest to us. 

  • EWGS offers multiple learning opportunities.... TAG, Refocus, RootsMagic

  • EWGS offers you a way to give back to the genealogy community through service...... through volunteering to help however you can. The definition of service is, simply put, HELPING.

  • In EWGS, sometimes you're the helper and other times you're the helpee. (Don't look in the dictionary for that word; I made it up. 😌)

Please click to www.EWGSI.org, especially if you've not in a while, and check out all that's offered to YOU. 

And know that EWGS needs you help, big or small.  😁
