Recap of 2020 Volunteer Hours During Pandemic Year
As was to be expected, the number of volunteer hours members gave to the Botna Valley Genealogical Society during the most unusual year of 2020 were way down. With the official "stay at home" order coming on March 17th, places like the Library shut down and only towards the end of the year did things really start opening back up. Twenty-one hours and fifteen minutes were all that were recorded. Hopefully with the advent of vaccinations now starting to be administered, we can get back to more normal days and activities.

Colleen, I have posted an ad in reference to the Orphan Train that stopped in Oakland in 1904. It is under the tab "Blog/News." Let me know if that is what you were wanting to look for. Barb

Would there be an opportunity for me to visit the genie room to search for information about an orphan train stop in Oakland? Thank you!
