HANDS AROUND THE LIBRARY

Join Us August 5th in Lansing. We can't do this virtually. We need to be there.

Now is the time for Michiganians to come to the aid of our state's history and learning.

The Michigan Genealogical Council is planning a public assembly in Lansing to show our legislators and fellow citizens that we care about our state's past. See press release.

On Wednesday the 5th of August, let's assemble at the State Capitol, on the lawn. The Council  has reserved the North and South lawns, and the steps. Time, 9:45 a.m. The State Senate goes into session at 10 a.m., the only time in the next few weeks we can be certain our legislators will be assembled at Lansing.

At 10:30 a.m., we will process/march over to the Michigan Historical Center and form our Hands Around the Library -- in hopes of good media coverage! Since the perimeter of the building is around 1800 feet, it is obvious we can use as many genealogists or friends of libraries/history of all types as possible.

Please let the Western Michigan Genealogical Society know you are coming for sure, since you can see that we need coverage - flags, ribbons & our WMGS Banner can be held between people as well as hands and arms.
