::DRUM ROLL:: We’re kicking off the giveaway section of our blog (who doesn’t love free stuff!) and thought what better way than with a brand new desk top calendar for the New Year! It gives you “a tip a day to make your genealogy blues go away.” Tear off the top sheet to reveal the next day’s fun fact. To give you an idea, I flipped through the calendar and here are some entries: Nevada legalized gambling in 1931, The great Chicago fire destroyed all of the city’s vital records, Before 1840 all land in Hawaii was owned by the king, A family tree can whither if nobody tends its roots. And that’s just four; there are 361 more like ‘em. Think how much smarter you could be by the end of this year 
!

This calendar would be a great addition to my desk!
You’re right! I love free stuff!
I love tip a day calendars! I know the perfect spot for it in my home.
This would be perfect for my home office. Thank you for the opportunity!
What better way to be reminded of where we came from. Let us never forget family and the roads they may have traveled. My son would truly enjoy where “grandma and grandmpa came from”!
This would make a perfect win for me, as I have never won anything yet free,plus what better way to start each day than with new knowledge.
How great it is to have the “Tip Of The Day” put perspective into our daily lives!!!!!
This looks like an awesome calendar!
A calendar would be great. However, I live in El Paso, TX.
No worries! We will be mailing the calendars to the winners!
This is an awesome idea for a calendar! I am new to genealogy (or is it geneology? See, I can’t even spell it yet, but my spellchecker showed that I was right the first time!). This calendar sounds like it would have some awesome ideas and encouragements to keep going with my research. I have such a long ways to go . . . especially when I looked at some markers at the “family” cemetery and don’t know who some of the people are and how they are related. Would love to hear from you with any suggestions or web sites to visit.
Good luck everyone!
I am so excited to hopefully win this calendar for my desk at work, Thanks for sending me this message

Knowledge is power. Wisdom is in the geneology.

I don’t alwaws remeber the date. This calendar will help
What a great idea for this kind of calendar! I love Genealogy, but have lots of work to do for our family because no information was ever kept. I love doing research on it. I work where there are lots of people coming in and out of my office and this would be a great asset for myself and all others to see. Would love to win one and hope to buy more for others. Good luck to all winners! Thanks
I read the magazine faithfully and love all the articles in the magazine. keep up the great work.
Oh this calendar would be great to write little reminders of what you need to look up, or even notes of what you found on what day. Good idea.
Love it, thanks for the opportunity and have a Happy Holiday Season and a Happy New Year!
What a perfect way to start the day – they do say you learn something new everyay, right? What a unique idea – Thanks
Saw the calendar at the FSGS Conference this year in Sarasota and was really impressed. I have the perfect spot on my desk!
This is great to write little reminders on
As the family historian in my family this calendar would be a great assistance to me. Quotes and historical information can be a bonus to those of us studying genealogy. I am determined to make more progress in the next year with finding and organizing more of our family history. What a neat little calendar.
I’d love this on my desk, sounds interesting.
What an awesome gift! I am relatively new to genealogy and this would definetly be a help to me. My family is certainly making this difficult! lol. Not many records and unfortunately my grandparents passed away before I was even born and didn’t speak a lot of English. I fear that I’m not going to get too far.
Thanks for the great giveaway!
Happy Holidays!
I’d like one for Laurie or pat, neat
Desktop calendars are great.. but genealogy desktop calendars are even better!
