Hike to Pine Butte Crater

We had a great trip to Pine Butte Crater yesterday.  Thanks to all who came.  We had a great time.  Here are some pictures of our adventure.  Thanks Linda for taking the group shot (wish you were in the picture).  Our next hike will be on June 30th.  Details will come later - but please put it on your calendar now.  This next hike will be a little longer and further away so plan on being gone until afternoon.  Also - it should be easy enough for everyone.

Ward Family History Activity - May 10th, 7 - 9 pm

Please come to a fun activity this Thursday at the Church from 7 - 9 pm.  This activity us for the entire family.  There will be a nursery for the small children.

There will be classes on Indexing, using a genealogy program, internet based family history sites, and descendancy research.

The kids will be working on family trees (if you have small pictures of different ancestors for 2 - 4 generations of ancestors please bring these for a family tree project for the kids).

If you have an LDS account, bring your username and password as these will be needed for several stations.  If you don't have an account yet, will be able to sign you up that night.  If you have account (and are able to access it) it will speed things up a bit.

If you have a laptop and want to work on indexing, feel free to bring it.  You can work offline but we hope to have wireless available.
