Blogger of Honor - Midwest Family History Expo
I am excited to announce that I am a Blogger of Honor for the Midwest Family History Expo. You may have noticed that I've mentioned the Midwest Expo will be held in Kansas City. I may actually have mentioned it once or twice or three or four times on Facebook and Twitter, but who is counting! I am looking forward to having an Expo in my hometown that is so highly regarded in the genealogy community.
The agenda is filling up with quality speakers on topics that cover genealogy around the world. There are currently 110 sessions on the schedule! Take some time to review the presentation schedule. I am sure you will find multiple presentations that will appeal to your area of research. The exhibit hall will be host to local as well as national libraries, archives and commercial genealogy service companies. There is time set aside each day to visit the exhibit hall.
I will be posting in the coming weeks with more specifics on the speakers, their presentations and the exhibit hall vendors. I will even give you some highlights of what Kansas City has to offer in the way of tourism close to the Expo site. I hope to see you in Kansas City!
