Hope you will join us and reconnect with your favorite Swedish family historians after our Summer break.

Preserving Your Heritage Using Digital Technology
  
Presented by Janelle Carmickle, Creative Memories and
Beverly Harbourt, SGSC Member
  
Digital cameras have changed the way you take pictures, but what can you do with those pictures? How do you plan to chronicle your family history, memories, and integrate your ancestor's photographs? This presentation will present ways to incorporate family stories, memorabilia, newspaper clippings, and pictures into a single album and demonstrate the creation of imaginative family heirlooms.
