California Family History Expo – Oct 16/17 – Win a free computer from Legacy

Geoff Rasmussen emailed me this bit of news about items Legacy Software is giving away at the Family History Expo in Redding. The expo takes place in just two weeks! Included in the prizes is an Acer Netbook PC. Now, that would be nice to win!

I will be at the Expo – and plan to speak 3 times – as well as exhibit. I’ll be bringing lots of genealogy books, supplies and CDs, so be sure and come by my booths (#20, 22, & 24), visit, and maybe even buy some stuff. I’ll be running some great specials, just for this Expo.

Following is Geoff’s latest news:

Here’s a little extra incentive to attend the California Family History Expo 2009 this month (begins Family History Expo 2009 - Redding, CaliforniaOctober 16, 2009 in Redding, California).
