This is somewhat of an after-action report and a lesson learned for not doing one for the Workshop in Arlington, Texas last month. So here forward, I will continue to document these Workshops.
A big shout out to Julita Atoigue, dba GuamGrub, for organizing the event held at the Everett Library, Evergreen Branch, Everett, Washington on June 7, 2025 from 12:00 to 5:00pm. Those were actually the Saturday operating hours of the library. But no problem, everyone pitched in to help setup and restore the conference room upon conclusion.
We planned for up to 30 people. I generally plan for that amount to factor in a 50% attrition. Lo and behold while we received 24 registrations, there were a total of 13 participants! It’s actually a good number of participants because it allows me more time to work with and help each participant with their unique questions pertaining to their own genealogy journey. For me, the best part of the Workshop is engaging with the Participants, listening and learning of their family and stories.
Of the 13 participants, we received 8 completed Participant Feedback Forms. Their responses and comments are documented in the video.
