OGS Members, looking for a few good members!!!

Beginner's Workshop team - there has been interest from the public to learn about doing one's genealogy research but don't know where to begin!
It would be great to have a few members who would be able to plan and conduct a Beginner's Workshop once or twice a year, possibly hybrid. Great outreach opportunities to grow our organization.
We are putting together a group of members to move this from a dream to a reality! If you are interested or have a question about what this entails, send an email to [email protected] if you have an interest!

OGS Members volunteer opportunities!!!

Speakers Bureau team - From time to time we receive requests for a member from our organization to come and speak to a group about genealogy and OGS. It would be great to have a few members who would like to speak for 30-45 minutes about genealogy to a neighborhood group, classroom full of kids, or service organization. Opportunities for this maybe once or twice a year depending on how many setup to represent OGS. Great outreach opportunities to grow our organization. Send an email to [email protected] if you have an interest!

OGS Members!! volunteer opportunities to enrich your OGS Membership.

Meeting Tech Team - We have a location secured with all of the needed equipment for hybrid general membership meetings, but we need 1 or preferably 2 people who can help with the tech setup at the in-person site for each meeting. Set up is pretty simple. You would be bringing the OGS laptop to each meeting and making the connections; much easier than when we met at the courthouse!!
If you are interested, contact Joe Brookshier [email protected] or Bob Monn [email protected].

Remember, we can't migrate to hybrid meetings until we have a couple of volunteers saying "Yes" to helping out the organization. At this point in time we are considering 3 or 4 meetings over the next year to be hybrid. Provided a couple of people step up and say "Yes"!!

OGS Members volunteer opportunities to enrich your experience with OGS!
DIG Virtually - There is interest in having a group to help out members in the community like we have done in the past at the Olympia Library, but to do this virtually. Virtual meeting times may be a couple of times a month, perhaps a week day and a Saturday for a couple of hours. If we were to have 6-10 members volunteer, there could be a rotating schedule. Schedule would depend on how many members volunteer. Training will be provided. Send an email to [email protected] if you have an interest in participating in this outreach opportunity.

OGS Members volunteer opportunities to enrich your experience with OGS!
50th Anniversary - This is a group to plan how we'll celebrate our 50th Anniversary this year. This commitment would be for this year only. Ideas for helping out could be planning one large event, helping with PR to news media, scanning photos for Facebook and Instagram posts, etc. Please send an email to [email protected] if you are able to help this year!

Duties are to collect articles, advertisements, and any and all things about OGS and it's members. This is a position that you can do on your own time, pretty much a solo position but you get the fun of being on the board of directors!
