Last Weeks Meeting

Last week Hetal quizzed us about roller coaster facts for Fun N Frolics.  Karen Pradun from the Wheeling Club talked about their club's fundraiser Murder Mystery Dinner on December 10 at 5:30 pm at Continental.  See details in the Events section of this bulletin.  Our speaker was John Doherty from The Family Album Company.  His company transfers photos, videos, slides, scrapbooks, wedding albums, children’s artwork, and more to a sharable digital format.  He showed slides about families he has helped by saving important family history.  His website is thefamilyalbumcopmany.com to see more about his service in preserving memories.
