IMPORTANT NOTE TO REGISTERED ATTENDEES:

 

We want to inform you of an important update regarding our upcoming HistoryMakers event. Governor DeSantis has issued an executive order declaring a state of emergency for 35 counties in Florida, including Miami-Dade, due to recent developments.

In light of this, and out of deep concern for the safety and well-being of students, staff, and Ancestry employees, we will be making slight adjustments to the event. While the event will still proceed as planned, we will be modifying the schedule and rescheduling all interviews to occur virtually at a date to be communicated in the coming week. 

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding during this time. Your safety and the safety of our team is our top priority.
