Since its first post on January 9, 2015, the WSGS Blog has posted over 5,000 special features, news, events and trivia about genealogy and family history in Washington State and the Pacific Northwest. The blog reaches almost 1,200 subscribers each week.

The terrific trio of Charles Hansen, Roxanne Lowe and Donna Potter Phillips work together to keep you informed and entertained. Charles, our Blog Master, has written the vast majority of the posts — just contact him at WSGSBlog@wasgs.org to promote your event or meeting. Roxanne posts occasional features, especially promoting the Outstanding Volunteer/Team awards. And no one should miss Donna’s “Let’s Talk About” columns — so entertaining.

Have you noticed the Blog banner changes every time you visit? The photos are submitted by readers like you. We’re always looking for scenic photos of our beautiful state for the rotating photo gallery on the blog banner.

Guidelines for the photos are few:
•Landscapes, landmarks, and scenery photos are preferred. If, however, you have a perfect photo that includes people, please obtain their permission to post the photo.
•Photo must have been taken in Washington State (this is the Washington State Genealogical Society blog, after all!).
•Photo will be cropped to 1100 x 250 pixels, so keep that in mind. If in doubt, send it to us & we’ll figure it out.
•You may submit as many photos as you want.
•Final decisions on suitable photos will be made by the awesome WSGS Blog Team.
•There’s no prize if your photo is chosen – just the satisfaction that your photo is being showcased on a blog viewed by hundreds of enthusiastic genealogists.
•There’s no firm deadline to submit photos, just keep ‘em coming. We want to rotate lots of photos to keep the blog fresh.

To submit your photo, please email the image (jpg only, please); what, where, when, and by whom the photo was taken to WSGSBlog@wasgs.org.
