Hello, I'm don't think this has been forwarded to this list, but it you are on the neighboring Saline, Pope or Hardin County lists you have already seen it. The Saline County Tourism Board's website is under construction at www.shawneetrip.com Jon Musgrave Listowner ----- Original Message ----- From: C Mart Watson <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, January 06, 2000 10:11 PM Subject: [ILSALINE-L] Homecoming Event > The Saline County Tourism Board, of which I am a member, is discussing the possibility of sponsoring a Saline County Homecoming event which would be genealogy oriented. If there is enough interest it could be expanded to cover nearby counties such as Pope, Hardin and Gallatin. It would probably be a weekend event and could be joined with another event such as a 4th of July celebration etc. There would be a meeting place where "cousins", list members, etc. could meet face to face, exchange information, etc. Possibly a meal meeting. Other possibilities are cemetery trips, motor coach tours to scenic and historic sites, etc. > Some of the Saline County Genealogy Society members have indicated that organization would fully cooperate, including keeping its library open on that weekend. > We would like to have your input and ideas to see if there is enough interest to proceed. If it is successful, it could become an annual event. I look forward to your feedback. > >
