Due to demand, the Société généalogique canadienne-française (SGCF) has announced that its previously sold-out seminar, Les forts français en Amérique du Nord (French Forts in North America), on Sunday, October 26, has more places available. The SGCF has obtained a larger room that will allow for a larger attendance.
The all-day seminar will now be held at:
Complexe funéraire Magnus-Poirier
6825 Sherbrooke Street East, Montreal
The funeral parlour has indoor and outdoor parking and is located near the Langelier Metro, and the 185 bus stops at the door.
Cost of the seminar is $45, including a choice of a box lunch: suprême de volaille, salmon filet, and vegetarian quiche. (You gotta love how Quebecers do a box lunch. Yum.) Registration is available before October 22.
Payment by credit card can be made by phone at 514-527-1010 or by email at info@sgcf.com, from Monday to Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. You may also send a cheque by mail or drop it off at the SCGF library at the Maison de la Généalogie.
Details about the five presentations are available in the previous blog post, The French forts in North America.
I called this morning and registered three friends and myself. This seminar looks very interesting. Yes, the lunch sounds quite tasty also. Looking forward to Sunday, spending time with good friends, meeting new people and having fun learning!
