Ventura County Genealogical Society members are invited to attend the annual holiday party luncheon and pot luck on 21 December 2019 at noon at the Oxnard LDS Church. Bring a dish for the pot luck and non-perishable food for donation to Food Share. We will install our new officers for 2020 at the party. (You can come a few minutes earlier if you need the kitchen for prep.)

Reference Library
Ventura County Genealogical Society provides full maintenance and development of the Genealogy Collection housed within the Camarillo City Library (upper level), 4101 Las Posas Road, Camarillo, California. You can access the catalog using the Library choice on the left-side menu. Library volunteers are regularly scheduled to help you use the collection, answer genealogy questions, or get you started with genealogy.

All VCGS activities are brought to life by the hard work of our volunteers. Society elections are held each year in November, and vacancies on the VCGS board are filled as needed. If you would like to volunteer your assistance, please contact the president.
