SLIG Registration!
Are you up?
Awake?
Semi-functional?
Good. Because registration for the 2014 Salt Lake Institute of Genealogy opens at 9 a.m. Mountain Daylight Time (that’s 11 a.m. eastern, 10 a.m. Central and 8 a.m. Pacific).
The week-long institute, offering a wide variety of courses for genealogists at all levels, will be held at the Radisson Hotel in Salt Lake City, Utah on January 13-17, 2014. Registration for the courses usually fills up fast.

Steps to Register
Again, you register by heading to the Utah Genealogical Association website. Once registration opens, a SLIG 2014 Registration menu item will appear in the list on the left side of the website. Registration for UGA members is $375, and if you log-in as a member before you try to register, you’ll automatically be charged the reduced rate. For non-UGA members, it’s $425 — but if you go ahead and join UGA at the same time (it’s only $35 and there are great member benefits!) you’ll get the registration difference refunded.
Ste-by-step, registration goes like this:
• Login as a member by clicking “Members Area” on the menu to the left (skip this step if registering as a non-UGA-member)
• Click the menu link “SLIG 2014 Registration” in the menu to the left. It will not appear until June 1, 2013 at 9:00 AM (Mountain Time).
• Fill in your personal information (this will mostly be prepopulated if you are logged in as a member)
• Choose a track–remember you take this track all week
• Click submit (if nothing happens you’ve left a required field blank)
• Choose pay by check or pay by PayPal (you do not need to have a PayPal account to pay via PayPal)
See you in January!
