Left over hand-outs from one conference were packed up and sent on to the member(s) who would be hosting a booth at the next conference. After the conference in St George (Joy Fisher posted information about that recently) the supply of state hand-outs has been exhausted. There are two conferences coming up - a conference in CA in June and the FGS conference during Aug in Ft. Wayne, IN - where members have committed to a USGenWeb Project booth and they are in need of state hand-outs. Having a state hand-out is such a great way to promote your state project. The hand-outs don't have to be professional printed or cost a lot of money. If even half of the CCs in a state were to print a few hand-outs and mail them no one would be out a lot of money. If you're interested in promoting your state to conference attendees please consider contributing hand-outs and talk to your fellow state CCs. If you'd like to "do something" but aren't sure what - at the FGS conference in Boston last year the #1 hand-out was a small colored, post card sized, map of IA, printed on heavy card stock, showing the county names and boundaries. We were continuously asked if we had such maps for other states. If you have questions or I can help in any way please let me know.. Feel free to forward this to any appropriate Project list.
