This year we will be at the Mini-Cassia CSI Campus (at the old Burley High School).  Mark your calendar for February 10, 2024, from 8:30 am to 4:00 pm.  A bigger facility means more classes . . . More than 60 classes to choose from ranging from beginner to advanced; something for everyone.  Check out our website for more information.  Instructor bios and class descriptions will be coming soon.  Burley FamilySearch Expo  

Check out our new options for the coming year.  And, stay tuned for more options and information in the coming months. 

1 - CSI Classes.   Instructors from the Burley FamilySearch Center will be providing 15 classes during the Spring Semester of Continuing Education at the Mini-Cassia CSI campus.  Classes start in February.   Here's the link to their Continuing Education Class Registration.  Note: the Spring Semester Continuing Education Classes have not been uploaded, but should be coming shortly.  Options include: Ancestry, Family Search, Basic Family History, and a section on writing histories and stories.

2 - New month and new classes.  Check out the calendar.  Cameron has decided to continue his lunchtime classes.  One topic per week, same class every day, pick the day that works best for you.   Marilyn has a new class this month as well, "What Do I Do With All the Stuff?"  Check the calendar for more information about all of our classes.  If you have a request for a specific class, please let us know and we'll do our best to accommodate those wishes. 

3 - Kids Classes.  Trina will be offering Kids Classes on Sundays this year.  Options include one week or five week options.  Classes will be offered when enough people have signed up for them.  They are based off the "My Family" booklet and geared for ages 3-11 years of age.  Songs, stories, activities, show and tell, etc.  Lots of fun for everyone.  Contact Trina at 208-242-6217 for more information or to sign up.
