On Friday and Saturday, the Center will be open from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm. And on Sunday, April 15, it will be open from Noon to 5:00 pm. In addition, admission and parking at the WRHS will be free for all OGS Conference attendees. Attendees need only show their Conference registration materials. Research Center staff and volunteers will be on hand to assist in research.
The Genealogical Committee will have an exhibit in the OGS Conference Exhibit Hall and will conduct daily prize drawings offering WRHS and Committee memberships, free research time, and other prizes. Members will be on hand to answer questions and describe the research help and resources available at the WRHS Research Center.
