Possible Nueva Galicia Genealogical Society Conference in LA


By drortiz - Posted on 13 March 2010

I live in Rancho Cucamonga, which is about 60 miles east of L.A. and is
right next to the Ontario International Airport (ONT). The ONT is much more
easily accessible than LAX. Rancho Cucamonga is also central to all of
southern California. There are a few hotels in the city, all of which are
very nice, but the one I work with for the education seminars I host charges
a discounted rate of $79 plus taxes per night; it is six miles from the ONT
and does have a shuttle to the airport.
Depending on the size of the group, we can meet in a home, or I have access
to a very nice facility that charges $16 per hour for a room that holds
about 40. Or more for a larger room.

There were a number of people who were interested in attending, but for
various reasons were not able to. Many of those interested parties are from
the Los Angeles, CA area and have expressed an interest in having the next
conference there. We are more than willing to consider holding the 2011
Conference in the Los Angeles area, but to do so would require a resident of
that area to help us secure a location and help with the logistics. I want
to ask any of you living in the Los Angeles area if you would be willing to
undertake that responsibility? Please let me know ASAP because we'd like to
begin planning as early as possible. I would also like to get an idea of the
number of people interested in attending and/or being a Speaker. It will
most likely be held n April or May 2011.

En Espa?ol:

Nuestra primera Conferencia fu? un gran exito, gracias a los esfuerzos
incansables de Hely Sparkman, y la cooperaci?n de Alicia Carrillo, Mart?n
P?rez, Kitty Cort?z y los oradores excelentes.

Hubieron varias personas que estaban interesadas en atender, pero por alg?n
motivo u otro no pudieron. Muchos de ellos radican en el area de Los
Angeles, CA y han expresado inter?s en que la prox?ma Conferencia se realize
en el area de Los Angeles. Para poder satisfacer esta petici?n
necesitariamos que alg?n residente de esa area nos ayudara encontrar el
lugar y con todas las log?sticas necesarias para el evento. Hay alguien que
este dispuesto a hacerse cargo de esta responsabilidad? Por favor
comuniquense conmigo lo mas pronto posible. Tambien me gustaria saber a
cuantos de Ustedes les gustaria atender y/o ser oradores. Lo mas probable
es que el proximo a?o va a ser en Abril o Mayo de 2011.
