First, in case you haven’t heard, the Southern California Genealogical Society will be holding its 41st Annual Jamboree in Burbank, California from Friday June, 11 through Sunday, June 13, 2010. The hashtag used on Twitter for Jamboree is #scgs10.
Second, as in past years, many members of GeneaBloggers attend this genealogy conference. Last year there were more than 35 bloggers at Jamboree attending not only the education sessions and workshops, but also gathering for social events. Jamboree is a great opportunity to get to know your blogging colleagues up close and personal – in 3D instead of virtually!

So now your help is needed. In order for GeneaBloggers to plan social events and to put together a “proper welcome,” we need a headcount. We’d like to know how many bloggers plan on attending Jamboree.
In order to track who will attend, please visit our brand new Meetup site for GeneaBloggers. You will need to sign up and enter your name and blog URL. By doing so, not only can we keep you up-to-date on upcoming Jamboree events, but GeneaBloggers will also be listing many different genealogy conferences and expos where GeneaBloggers members meet.

Wish I could go. Too close to son’s h.s. graduation – besides we might still be digging out of the snow here in Northern VA
