So the first week is over. We are looking for your presence. We will have a few Covid protocols in place for the first few weeks. Masks are expected. Post if you would like an appointment. Or send a message. Someone will get back to you to set that up. Please remember that space is limited so appointments are best for the time being.

We are please to announce that the Family History Centre will be open again starting on Tuesday, May 3. Initially, hours will be Tue, Wed, Thur and Fri from 9am until 1pm. We may add weekend and evening times in the future, depending on demand.
Since the space is limited and many of our customers and volunteers are seniors, we will require that guests wear masks as a Covid-19 prevention measure for now.
We certainly look forward to seeing our wonderful customers again.
