The Delaware Genealogical Society sponsored Diahan for a one-day symposium. The event was a tremendous success with 200 attendees. We also saw a spike in membership that we attribute to this event. Our new member join rate was averaging 4 per month. We had 28 new members join in April, several noting the quality of our speaker as their reason for joining.
Thank you for your lecture series! I was not only riveted the whole time but I felt like the information is finally sinking in. That’s huge—I’ve been to many talks on genetic genealogy and it’s always been so hard for me to grasp. So thank you!
