The Genealogical Institute on Federal Records held its first online registration this weekend, and the response was strong—100% strong.  This year’s class hails from 18 different states and promises to broaden the horizons of everyone who attends.  If you had been thinking of attending but missed registration, we highly recommend the top of the waiting list. It’s not a bad place to perch, especially for those who can be flexible and jump at opportunity. While we hope that all our registrants can follow through with their plans, real life does sometimes get in the way.

Check out this year’s program here. You can put your name on a waiting list here.  And if you need more arguments in favor of attending, read blog posts by Dave McDonaldEric StroscheinDearMyrtle, and Judy G. Russell.

Thanks to Elissa Scalise Powell for her help!  She generously shared her GRIP expertise with us, another wonderful example of the genealogical community pulling together.
