Randy Robinson presents:

Navigating the New LGS Website

Description: The LGS Website has undergone many changes in 2026. The site contains so much information that many members get a bit overwhelmed by everything. The goal of this presentation is to provide a walk-through of the website and highlight important information that you can find in the hidden corners of lgsco.org.

BIO: Randy has been an active member of LGS for the past 3 or so years, acting most recently in the role of Webmaster – a role he was asked to perform, since he wasn't terrified by HTML and CSS. While his background is in electronic design, so far he has managed to not mess up the website too badly.

 Title: Family History Fundamentals Special Event: Getting Started with DNA

Description:You have a LOT of relatives out there who can help you with your family genealogy – you just don't know who they are! A DNA test can both help you find those relatives and tell you much about where you came from. Let's explore what DNA is, how it "works", and how it can help you learn about your family history.
