Genealogy Club Holds Inaugural General Membership Meeting

Dick Sussman,
QCGC Communications Chair

On March 30 the leadership of our much-anticipated Quail Creek Genealogy Club (QCGC) was greeted with robust applause as they introduced themselves to an assembly of more than 50 members and other genealogy-interested residents in the superbly equipped Kino Ocotillo/Mesquite Room. Leaders outlined plans for the year-round mentoring and teaching of lineage researching and how to use all modern genealogy options, tools, and methods. Monthly member meetings and workshops feature residents with years of academic-level researching skills as well as discussions presented by renowned guest speakers. For this inaugural meeting, attendees were treated to a marvelously appropriate presentation, “Become an Organized Genealogist,” presented by Debra Karibinier, president of the Southern Arizona Genealogy Society. Her one-hour QC presentation can be studied and enjoyed here: tinyurl.com/2p8sa4ju.
