We began this quarter with a meeting on April 13th in Worcester, MA where the membership had the opportunity to have a roundtable discussion of marketing ideas. Members shared their marketing ideas and experiences. The format and content was well received by all. The Tom Jones DVD duplication has been completed and all preorders have been fulfilled. All new orders are now being processed, if you wish to purchase this 2 lecture DVD, you can do so by downloading the order form from the NEAPG website. About one quarter of the NEAPG membership made their way to the NGS 2010 Family History Conference in Salt Lake City. The NEAPG Membership has increased to an all time high of 72. We look forward to meeting all our new members at upcoming meetings and events. Our next meeting will be held on June 27th at the American-Canadian Genealogical Society in Manchester, NH. After the meeting, members will get a tour of the facility will have the opportunity to research their Canadian ancestry. Elissa Scalise Powell will provide the membership with a presentation on July 11th at the American-French Genealogical Society in Woonsocket, RI. The NEAPG website now includes a RSS reader which features snippets of our members latest blogs. Other features added are; a link to member websites with a hit counter, links to other APG Chapter websites and a "Share with Facebook" feature. In the works is a calendar that will export the NEAPG event schedule and allow the user the ability to import into iCal, Google Calendar or Outlook. At the same time it will import calendars from other organizations that export their calendars. Members will have the ability to post their speaking schedules on the calendar, if they so desire. |
