Let Your Skeletons Dance Lock In

September 27, 2012

Halloween candy is out in the stores. That means, it’s time to register for the 4th annual Let Your Skeletons Dance Lock In. On Friday, October 26, 2012, the Midwest Genealogy Center will remain open for attendees from 6:00 p.m. to midnight. The night includes a barbeque dinner, mini-classes, games, and door prizes. There’s time for research and talking with fellow genealogists. This year the classes will focus on copiers, printers, and scanners.

"If you can't get rid of the skeleton in your closet, you'd best teach it to dance." Based on George Bernard Shaw’s quote, this night is a celebration of our ancestors and the work we do to keep their memories alive. It is also a night to remember that genealogy is a hobby. It’s supposed to be FUN!

There will be minimal staff available, so one-on-one instruction must be requested and confirmed at least one week before the Lock In. The fee of $25 is due by 9:00 p.m on Wednesday, October 24th. Registration is required. Payment can be made by cash, check (in person or by mail), or debit/credit card (in person or on the phone). Please keep a copy of your confirmation.

Costumes optional!
