1. Laptop: if you have one and wish to start a calendar project during this session.
2.Pre-load the free version of the StoryBook Software (this CD was handed out at the holiday party) you can also download it at http://www.creativememories.com/Content/Shop/FreeStorybookCreatorSoftware.aspx
3. Be thinking of a theme you would like to do: Family, heritage, Vacation, Pet, Recipe, etc..
4. Images or documents to be scanned & added to your calendar. There will be a couple of scanners on hand for us to use.
5. List of dates you would like to add to your calendar like: birthdays, anniversaries, regular meetings, family reunion, etc
We will be learning a lot. Best of all the demonstrations you see can be used to start creating your own Family History Book.
