This is unfortunate, but not unexpected - the Harvest Your Family Tree conference (https://scottishgenes.blogspot.com/2020/02/harvest-your-family-tree-conference.html), which was being arranged by Kelowna and District Genealogical Society in Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada, and which I was due to speak at in September, has now been officially cancelled because of the coronavirus pandemic. Just prior to this an additional event we were hoping would also happen in Qualicum Beach, Vancouver Island, has also been postponed for now.
It's quite understandable, and conferences can always be rearranged - stay safe folks, and we'll catch up again sometime!
