 * Lakeridge Family History Center Classes and Personal Assistance:         Introductory and advanced classes are occasionally offered on the FamilySearch Family Tree, Indexing, and basic approaches to family history and genealogy. These are publized at the Center and in ward bulletins in our Orem six stake service area. We also invite and welcome family and ward youth, young adult and adult groups from these stakes to schedule visits for hands-on group training on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday evenings at 7 or 7:30PM or by special arrangement at others times including on Saturdays and Sunday evenings. Since we have only 8 computers with internet connections, and are somewhat limited in space, we do computer projector presentations for larger groups in our classroom area or in the Stonewood Stake Center chapel. Participants are welcome to bring their own laptops on which they should be able to get an internet connection as they can now do in most LDS Church buildings.'
