Meet-Up Planner
If you are a social being who loves to talk genealogy, this is your niche in WCGS! Volunteer to arrange quarterly meet-ups. The casual events can be an in-person event, tour of a museum or archive, or just a meal! This would also be a great assignment for two people who would like to work together. Here's a list of past meet-ups:
