Hi all - The Tacoma-Pierce County Genealogical Society's monthly meeting will be this Tuesday, December 8th beginning at 6:30 pm. Our topic will be: Our Holiday Heritage and Memories by the members and guests of TPCGS Everyone is invited to bring holiday heirlooms and share holiday memories of our family's holidays from days gone by. Do you have a special gift or a treasured toy given to you in the past by a dear family member? How did your grandparents or great-grandparents spend their holiday seasons? Does your family still practice time-honored family traditions during this special time of year? If so, please bring these memories and treasures to share with everyone else at this festive society meeting. We always have cookies and treats at our meetings. We hope that anyone who brings cookies to this special meeting might consider bringing a traditional family holiday favorite. And if you like, please bring copies of the recipes to share with everyone as well. Our venue is the Olympic Room at the Tacoma Public Library, 1102 Tacoma Avenue South, Tacoma, Washington. See http://www.rootsweb.com/~watpcgs/meetings.htm for an online map and driving directions to the Library. Guests are always welcome at the TPCGS monthly meetings. You need not be a member to attend our free monthly meetings. See you there. Merry Cheers - Mark -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ markhow@oz.net
