Jamboree Recorded Sessions Available for Presale

Our conference recording partner, Conference Resources, is taking preorders for audio and video recordings of sessions at Jamboree, the Family History Writers Conference, and Tech-Trax workshop .  You'll enjoy a $15 discount for ordering the whole conference on a flash drive and video sessions on DVD. Your choice - pick up the recordings at Jamboree or have them mailed afterward.

Individual sessions will be available for purchase at Jamboree and (after a while) from the Conference Resource website.  We will be release a list of all 2012 recorded sessions in the next day or so.

We think the Conference Resource crew members are just great. Their videos and audio recording are high quality. They are pros and it shows.

Here's a link to their website.  You'll be glad you clicked.

Jamboree: Order Your Conference Recordings Now

Great news!  Conference Resource has begun to ship the audio recordings (thumb drives) and DVD video recordings of sessions at Jamboree. If you ordered any recordings while you were at Jamboree, you should get yours soon if you haven't already received it.

I've watched a few of the DVDs and the quality is outstanding. The crew did a fabulous job of capturing all of the excitement and wisdom contained in the sessions.

Once they have completed their work, Conference Resource will offer the sessions for download from their website. In the meantime, though, if you want to review the list of available recordings and even order by mail, the order form is online here.  It's a PDF that is legal-sized (8-1/2" by 14") document. You'll need a copy of Adobe Reader in order to be able to view it.

You'll remember that we lived-streamed several sessions on Saturday. Those sessions will be available for viewing at no cost by SCGS members.  Please give us until August to get those online.  The SCGS website is due to a big move to a new server in the next couple of weeks, and we really don't want to stress the website now.

As a gentle reminder, we are still accepting donations to help fund the cost of these streamed recordings. Every donation brings us closer to being able to offer similar services in the future. You can pay through PayPal, through the SCGS website, or by sending a check to SCGS, 417 Irving Drive, Burbank, CA 91504.

Thank You for Your Financial Support

Dear Genealogy Friends,

As you may have heard, SCGS will have streaming video sessions on Saturday from Jamboree. The programs are offered free of charge to the genealogical community, but we have (gently) requested donations to help support SCGS's technological efforts. We didn't know how it would work out, but here's a preliminary report.

PayPal donations are coming in faster than they ever have.  For that, we are very grateful and thanks to those of you who have already contributed.

If you are interested in supporting our various webinars, free streaming videos and other initiatives, please consider donating through PayPal or through the SCGS shopping cart. If you use the shopping cart, the minimum donation is $10. If you would like to donate more than $10, just change the quantity. (For example, if you want to donate $50, just change the quantity from "1" to "5").
