Thank You From Jamboree 2018
The Jamboree Committee would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who contributed to Family History Writers Conference, the Genetic Genealogy, and Jamboree 2018 conferences.
Thank you, Attendees!
You are what makes the conference both exceptional and memorable. Without you, there wouldn't be a Jamboree. Whether you came from near or far, were with us in person or via the wonders of technology, Thank You!
Thank you, Speakers!
For generously sharing your knowledge, research experiences and tips, your time and your sense of humor. You continuously lead by example and inspire genealogists of all experience levels to learn more, expand our vision of what family history research is and should be, all the while reminding us to be open to all possibilities in life and in research. Speakers, Thank You!
Thank you, Exhibitors!
For showcasing the products and services that make research so rewarding, for preserving records and making them accessible online, and for the books that we just can't give up even in the digital age. For the societies that give us opportunities to learn, share and meet others who share our passion for family history. Exhibitors, Thank You!
Thank you, Sponsors!
For their generous support of Jamboree. We are very grateful for the support of all of our sponsors: Ancestry, MyHeritage, Family Tree Maker, Living DNA, FamilyTree DNA, FamilySearch, Photos, Movies and More, 23andMe, Family Tree Magazine, Salt Lake Plaza Hotel, Family ChartMasters, Lisa Louise Cooke's Genealogy Gems, Your Genealogy Today & Internet Genealogy Magazines (Moorshead Magazines). To all sponsors, Thank You!
Jamboree extends special thanks to Ancestry, who shared the cost of the live streaming that has been viewed around the world and Living DNA generously sponsored the Jamboree App.
Finally, and most importantly, Thank you to all the Jamboree Volunteers!
It takes hundreds and hundreds of hours of volunteer time to produce Jamboree each year. Some volunteers work year-round to plan the events, coordinate with speakers, line up the exhibitors and sponsors, coordinate contracts, create graphic art masterpieces, update the Jamboree website, produce the syllabus, and so much more. Others work an hour or two before or at the conference. Every hour magically contributes to making Jamboree special for everyone.
Sincerely,
The SCGS Board of Directors & the 2018 Jamboree Committee

*What happened to free Live Streaming at Jamboree?
Ancestry.com has generously underwritten the Jamboree Live Streaming program for several years and is doing so again this year. The SCGS is very appreciative of Ancestry’s support of our conferences. Unfortunately, ever-increasing costs have caught up to us and prevent us from offering this event at no charge. The Jamboree Committee has kept fees as low as possible. For members, the fee is $10 for 12 classes. That’s just 83 cents per class! For non-members, the fee is $55 for the 12 classes or just $4.58 per class. Compared to other conferences, SCGS Live Stream offerings remain a bargain!

Helpful Hints for A Great Conference Experience
Helpful Hints and Tips
Jamboree Mobile App
Download for IOS, Android, and all web-enabled smartphones. A one-stop resource for schedules, speakers, exhibitors, many syllabus articles, maps.
JamboFREE
Thursday sessions are free to the public as part of the SCGS mission to "...provide instruction in accepted and effective research techniques."
Pink and Blue Sheets
The most important tool you will use during the weekend. Legal-sized pink (Jamboree) or blue (Genetic Genealogy and Family History) sheets give you the full conference schedule, information on parking, scanning, book signings, food and a map of the Marriott.
Syllabus
All paid registered attendees receive a free digital syllabus that includes all three conferences. Printed copies are available for purchase while quantities last. Syllabus handouts are available on the Jamboree App when authorized by the speaker. Copyright laws apply.
Bag Inserts - Don’t throw away those Show Specials!
We’ve asked every Exhibitor to offer you a show special that beats anything you can get on the internet. Many have put their show specials on their conference bag flyers. So, don’t just chuck those papers in the nearest bin! Take a moment to see who has the special you’ve been waiting for … maybe one you haven’t thought of yet!
