Otoe County Genealogical Society
 
The Otoe County Genealogical Society will hold its November 12th meeting at the Morton-James Public Library. This meeting will welcome all new members into the society, and will also cover topics of interest concerning genealogical research in the Otoe County area. This meeting is open to all who are interested in joining the society, or just wish to attend to learn more about genealogical research in general.
 
During this meeting we will be conducting our quarterly Genealogy Internet Workshop, where we will be introducing our members to the valuable genealogical resources that are available on the Internet. This workshop is designed to assist those researchers who are unsure of how to locate their family's history online. So if you are new to the Internet and would like assistance in this area, please stop by and join us in our free workshop. Also, for those visitors that prefer to research their ancestors through more conventional means, the library's Genealogical Reference Room will be open at this time, and assistance will be provided by society members in this area as well.
 
Our society meets on the second Thursday of every month at 7:00 pm, and our meeting location alternates every other month between the Otoe County Museum of Memories in Syracuse, and the Morton-James Public Library in Nebraska City. To learn more about the society, please check out our website, or contact the Morton-James Public Library for more information.

From the Editor
Sooner of Later
It's November, so it must be time for OKLAHOMA!!
 

I am completely distracted this week

Normally I am pretty focused during the course of the Business Day, but I am all over the place, and I know why; Sat at 7PM is the Big One!

I am a realist. I have seen our offense the last few weeks, but I have also seen our unbelievable, inspired, and fired up defense and I just have a feeling, this is where we get healed for all our sins. This is where we make it all right!

I know that our Blackshirts are going to mess these Sooners up a lot, I expect them to also do the necesssary scoring. Hey, they are the Blackshirts, they can do anything!!!

When we got it done in Missouri, I knew this was going to be a special year, and I still believe that we are going to be really happy come this Sunday Morning!!!

I am so easily amuzed!

 I really do like Terri's idea to adopt part of the

Plattsmouth Wooden Nickel tourism promotion and craft it into a unique

Live it UP in Louisville!!

 (These are images and links I borrowed from Plattsmouth)

  I know that the Plattsmouth Main Street Association is interested in working with other Communites, such as Louisville to leverage energy and creativity towards a larger Cass County success.

Certainly that kind of Community cooperation is a goal of Nebraska Community Websites

This particular BUILD program has some great potential, but it is going to require a boatload of creativity and management to get it into an actionable project.

What About You? Can You Pitch In?

Give Terri a call 234-2504 or John at 234-5678
