The long-awaited week is finally here!  If you have ever attended BYU Campus Education Week you are familiar with the exceptional event that it is–providing the opportunity for thousands to attend classes all week to be edified, inspired, and instructed. We are pleased to announce that The Family History Guide Association will host a booth in the Wilkinson Student Center Garden Court Wednesday through Friday. If you are at the conference please stop by–we would love to see you! Our public relations director, Scott Anderson, will be presenting at Education Week again this year. His classes will be held at 3:10 pm Tuesday through Friday in the Marriott Center. As part of his presentation on Wednesday, he will introduce The Family History Guide and discuss the benefits and blessings of family history in our individual lives and in the lives of our family members.
