When and where do we meet?
The DPS, as it
is known, meets on the fourth Sunday of each month (except December)
from 12.30 pm - 5 pm (12.30 pm for coffee and chat, speaker is usually
at 1.30 pm, break for coffee at 3, meet again until 4.30 pm, then clean
up/pack up time.)
We meet at the Bundoora Community Hall, Noorang Avenue, Bundoora
(Victoria, Australia) which is off Greenwood Drive, between Plenty and
Watsonia Roads. Where we meet is behind the main hall. There is plenty
of parking just by the door. All we ask is a donation of $2 to cover
the cost of the hire of the hall and other incidentals and that you
please bring a plate of yummy nibbles to share. Tea and coffee are
provided. So come along to any meeting and introduce yourself. You are
very welcome.
If anyone
would like to share any of their genealogical experiences or travels,
please contact Beryl at the meeting and she can put you in on any one
of the "vacant" dates! You may think that others "are not interested"
in what you have to say....WRONG!
We are always
willing to listen to others experiences: bookwriting, travels to
Ireland, meeting up with Aunt Harriet, where you went to school, what
genealogical (database) program you use, looking at old photographs,
the choice is yours!
