PROGRAM MEETINGS

Program Meetings on the 2nd Tuesday of the month do not occur during the summer months of June, July and August. Program meetings will resume in September and continue monthly through May 2025.

Coffee & Cousins on the 3rd Saturday of the month from 10 AM to Noon is NOT meeting during the summer months. Be ready to share your family history stories with others when it returns on September 21.

BGS has a variety of types of meetings - some are in-person-only at Williamson Hall, some are Zoom-only, and some are hybrid, meaning you can attend in-person at Williamson Hall or on ZOOM.

When travel in the winter is hazardous, BGS usually has Zoom-only meetings.
