The virtual conference is being hosted on the Whova platform, an outstanding tool for display, collaboration, and virtual presentations. The conference dates are May 16-18, and there is a &#8220;pre-show&#8221; week where registrants can browse exhibitor booths and give comments.<\/p>\n<p>The Family History Guide Association is excited to be part of a group of 41 exhibitors and sponsors at the virtual conference. In the pre-show, our booth is in the top five in terms of number of views, likes, and positive comments. (Yes, it&#8217;s not a competition, but it is nice to be highly regarded!)<\/p>\n<p>See you at the NGS Conference! Follow the link above for registration information.
