GFO Adds 2nd Family Tree Maker Session

by Charles Hansen

Family Tree Maker Road Show Adds Second Session! (If Enough People Sign Up)
Pardon this extra email during your weekend.
You blew us away with your response to the Family Tree Maker Road Show, snapping up all the tickets in just one day. We listened! Your response has been so overwhelming, we’ve added a second session and increased seating at the first. Session 1 runs from 1-3 p.m. and is ALMOST full. If it does fill up and you hit the wait list, try registering for Session 2. Session 2 runs from 4-6 p.m. — But this is conditional. We need at least 20 people to sign up for session 2 for the FTM gurus to stay for a second presentation. Lots of elbow room (so far) here!
Session #1: Register for 1-3 p.m.
Session #2: Register for 4-6 p.m.
The folks behind FTM are coming to the GFO library for a 2-hour interactive presentation on Wednesday, March 6th. (It’s not just a lecture; there’s lots of time for questions.) Mark Olsen is the Family Tree Maker Ambassador to historical and genealogical societies around the world, working to support their members as they use Family Tree Maker. He’ll show new features in Family Tree Maker, how to move to its current version, and how to get a free update. Kiara Neilsen teaches classes regarding the use of Family Tree Maker DNA, and how to use DNA results to further genealogical research. “If you have received your DNA results and thought, ‘Now what?’ Charting Companion 7 is a great place to start. Pierre Clothier is the creator of Charting Companion and will join in with us in a live webcast to show off the amazing DNA edition charts both those tied to your DNA findings and your Family Tree Maker trees.” Plus, a little birdie tells us that you might find some discounts available. Registration is open now! Did you already sign up and now want to change to a different session? Go ahead and sign up for the second one and then email education@gfo.org.
