NEW OPPORTUNITY!

WRITER’S CIRCLE

Come join us in the fun of Preserving YOUR life story and that of your Ancestors.

One of the greatest gifts you can give to your loved ones are the memories and experiences that shaped lives.

After doing a lot of research you can now tell what you have discovered about your ancestors. Plus, you can add emotions, hopes and dreams to those names and dates.

Additionally, you have your own special story to tell, most of which you only know about.

Now is the time to pass on these valuable life lessons.

Please join us Thursday’s, 10 AM to 1 PM at the Lake County IL Genealogical Society, located at 290 Evergreen, Lower Level, Vernon Hills, IL 60060, for an opportunity to begin preserving your history.
