Leaders and Team Members Needed


FxGS needs volunteers for the following leadership and support roles. 


Assistant for Membership: The Membership Team, addresses potential member questions, and helps members join or renew. The membership team lead needs a backup who can fill in if the team leader is away.  Duties include: pick up mail from the PO Box about every 10 days.  Open and sort the mail.  Forward checks, donations to Treasurer, all other mail to Membership VP. Answer any membership queries that come in. For more information contact Roy at eaglescout.roy@cox.net

Special Events Team Lead: This team advertises and organizes the Spring and Fall Seminars, in coordination with the Education Team. Seminars usually consist of three in person presentations on a Saturday. The team publicizes the seminars, sets up the registration and collection of fees, and orders the lunch for those interested. Several volunteers are still available to help the SE Team, but we need a new leader. For more information please contact vpprograms@fxgs.org 

Mid Atlantic Special Interest Group (SIG) Team Lead: Coordinates the schedule and program for the Mid-Atlantic SIG and stays connected with FxGS Board for sharing / publicity needs. For more information, please contact Janet Werner at externalrelations@fxgs.org.

Irish Special Interest Group (SIG) Team Lead: Coordinates the schedule and program for the Irish SIG and stays connected with FxGS Board for sharing / publicity needs. For more information, please contact Janet Werner at externalrelations@fxgs.org.


Education Team: New members needed! This team organizes the monthly programs, both by Zoom and in person. Based on membership survey inputs and priorities, the team puts out a bid for speaker proposals (usually January), then selects speakers and establishes agreements for the programs. We create the meeting schedule for the year and manage or facilitate each program. For more information contact vpprograms@fxgs.org


Please consider joining a FxGS team. It's lots of fun and you get to know genealogy colleagues. Besides the email addresses above, always feel free to contact President Art Buck at president@fxgs.org.
