  Chula Vista Genealogy Society General Meeting.

  “Success and Triumphs”

  Presented by: CVGS Members

  Chula Vista Civic Center Branch Library

  (365 F Street, Chula Vista, CA 91910)

  We all struggle with some of our more reluctant ancestors who just seem to defy our efforts to make them known.

  We chip away at our brick walls, removing a brick here and creating a crack there and then every once in a while sometimes happens that makes the wall come tumbling down. 

  At this meeting we invite members to bring their revelations and success stories to tell us all how it all happened, what methods finally worked and what it meant to finally find the truth.

  If you wish to present, please contact Virginia Taylor soon. There is only time for about ten (10) presentations at ten minutes each.

  If you have media to be projected on the big screen, please contact Gary Brock to arrange to get the material prepared.

  The meeting starts promptly at Noon with announcements and introductions. Refreshments and fellowship will complete the program.
  

  Please register soon if you plan to attend this meeting so that we may better plan for this event.

  Attendance is free

  Chula Vista Genealogy Society General Meeting.

  “Heirloom Show and Tell”

  Presented by:    CVGS Members

  It's November again, time for what use to be our “Heirloom Discovery Day” meeting. However, as our friend Georgie Stillman is not able to be with us again this year we will, again, be presenting “Heirloom Show and Tell”.

  This is where our members bring in interesting items, that have become family heirlooms, to show us and tell us what they know about the item. 
  
  Please bring in your family treasures to share with the group. If you can carry it, you can bring it! If possible, send Gary Brock a photo of your item so it can be projected on the big screen.

  Please email Virginia Taylor if you will be bringing a Family Treasure along with the story about the item. Don’t forget the story.

  The meeting starts promptly at Noon with announcements and introductions.

  Presentations by our members followed by a short business meeting and finally raffle drawings, refreshments and fellowship will complete the program.

  Please register soon if you plan to attend this meeting so that we may better plan for this event.

  Attendance is free
