SOMETHING NEW: THE NERGC SILENT AUCTION
NERGC 2009 will hold a 50/50 Silent Auction on Friday, April 24 and on Saturday, April 25 in the Expo Center during our conference. Owners of the items or services to be auctioned will receive 50% of the winning bid, with the remaining 50% going to NERGC.
Items or services should have a genealogical connection - for instance, a block of hours of genealogical research or analysis; genealogical books or cds (check your duplicates!); memberships in your genealogical organization; registrations to your next conference; pins from past conferences, etc.
The minimum retail value of each offering or combination of items must be $10. A full description of rules will appear in an upcoming E-zine. Take this opportunity to support NERGC and clear some shelf space or flex some research muscle! Only NERGC registered attendees can put things in the silent auction, but bidding will be possible in person and online for everyone who applies (free) for a bidding number.

RHODE ISLAND GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY BUS TRIP TO NERGC
The Rhode Island Genealogical Society is arranging for a bus to make a one day trip to Manchester. It will be Saturday, April 25th, leaving from Warwick early in the morning and returning the same day. The cost is $22.00. Each person will be responsible for the one day admission fee, and all meals. Anyone interested may contact Helen Smith at AAA in Wakefield, RI; 401-789-3000 or E-mail: hhsctc@aol.com
RIGS has encouraged full participation for all members who can. However, due to work, lack of funds, or time other constraints, the bus permits members to experience the NERGC Conference with minimum driving expense and an opportunity to take part, if even for only one day. RIGS will also be having a booth in the Exhibit Hall, and those attending are encouraged to visit the exhibits and take part in any of the activities on that day.
