Hi Maria, Most bring their laptops with them. We will have tables set up with power outlets for three to four people per table facing front. If you have your genealogy in a genealogy program, make sure it is up-to-date. If you have tested FTDna or manage kits for relatives, bring your kit numbers and passwords with you. You may also want to bring any photocopies of documents that you want to have us look at and verify info. Last year, one of our attendees was searching in Sao Miguel because he thought that the marriage doc (from the USA) said the couple had married in S. Miguel but when I looked at it I realized the couple were married in Santa Maria! Once we had that figured out, we found his grandparents baptismal records in the CCA site right away! If you don't have your genealogy on a computer program, bring your Pedigree Charts and Family Group Sheets! The more info you have with you the more we all can help you.
Dress comfortably, we are not formal! You will be sitting at the lectures and then also in the Family History Library computer rooms for lessons. They keep the FHL @ about 72 degrees but the Lecture room at the Plaza can get a little stuffy, dress in layers! I hope that this helps. If you have any other questions you may write to me or perhaps Cheri will think of things I've left out! Looking forward to meeting you! It looks like the weather is going to be mild (middle 60's) during the day but bring a warm jacket for the evenings.
