Hi everyone, There are some opportunities for involvement that are currently available within The MDGenWeb Project. If you have an interest in Dorchester County, or African-American, or Native American genealogy, and you have at least basic knowledge of html and ftp uploading, this is an opportunity for you to become part of one of the best state projects associated with The USGenWeb Project. 1. The Dorchester County site for The MDGenWeb Project is available for adoption. 2. We are looking for someone to launch a topical state special project for African-American genealogy. 3. We are looking for someone to launch a topical state special project for Native American ancestry. As USGenWeb Local Coordinators (County Coordinators, or CCs, and State Special Project Coordinators, or SSPCs), we are able to help our fellow researchers, and "give back" to the genealogical community by sharing our knowledge and skills. Becoming a CC can be very fulfilling and rewarding, both in terms of learning more about the history of Maryland and/or your chosen county or topic, and helping others with their genealogical research. If you're interested and would like to apply, or if you just want more information about CC and SSPC duties, take a look at our Volunteer page (http://www.mdgenweb.org/volunteer.htm). Thanks! Shari Handley Maryland USGenWeb State Coordinator [email protected]
