First California Company of the Jamestowne Society had another successful presence at the recent Southern California Genealogy Jamboree. The conference was held in June at the Marriott Burbank Airport Hotel in Burbank. The Jamboree is an opportunity for our Company to reach out to potential members and make them aware of our organization. “I love visiting with lots of visitors about Jamestowne,” said our Jamboree organizer and Membership Chairman, Cathie Matranga.
Thanks go to Cathie and Gene Matranga for manning our booth for the first two days of the event, and to Sandy & Scott Krutilek for manning our booth on the third day.
The jamboree is an annual event held by the Southern California Genealogical Society. The next Jamboree is scheduled for June 10-12, 2011. It is a wonderful opportunity to network with others who are interested in genealogy, to attend genealogy workshops, and to explore an exhibit hall full of interesting resources.

Does First California Company have a NorCal presence? The upcoming California Family History Expo at the Alameda County Fairgrounds in Pleasanton October 8/9 would be a great place to showcase your society. Do you have any common members with the California Genealogical Society in Oakland?
