Have you registered for the Scan-a-Thon yet? [closed]

Question

In January we will have our first annual 72-hour scanning marathon, to parallel our fun and successful annual Source-a-Thons and Spring Clean-a-Thons.

Our mission: to scan and share all those old family photos and other items we've been meaning to get to!

The party starts Friday morning, January 11, at 8 AM (ET) and runs until Monday, January 14, at 8 AM (ET). (Eastern Standard Time is GMT -5.) We're encouraging genealogists from all over the world to participate at the same time.

Will you join us?

To register, just click the ANSWER button and say "Sign me up!" or whatever and include a few words about your location or genealogical interests.  

If you're already part of a team from a previous challenge and want to stay on it, mention that. Not all teams are available for the Scan-a-Thon so you may not end up on the same one. The current teams are listed here. More may be added.

Please be sure to read the rules of participation. Thanks!

Deadline was last Wednesday and the event is winding down.

That stinks. Oh well. Guess I'll wait until the next event to load pictures and articles.

Answer 9

Sign me up as a Nor'Easter. My uncle Jim just told me that there's a box of family records on their way from N.H.!

Wow, that's great! A whole box of fact filled records, you are very lucky!!!

---

Thanks, Scott! You've been badged.

---

Thanks, Loretta! Sadly, I'm pretty certain that the box of fact-filled records will be pertaining to those relatives who are already sourced six-ways-to-Sunday on Ancestry and FamilySearch already. My problem children (usually Irish immigrants) tend to be more problematic and require a discovery somewhere in the scanned records of some small Catholic church on the Emerald Isle. :) (I have *one* of those (screen capture, not scan) queued up to put in too!)

Answer 10

Love to sign up. Most of the items I have to scan are from my Northeastern relatives, so I'll go with the Nor'Easters. Thanks to all who organize these wonderful events to help improve our resources!

Welcome Aboard. It looks like we have a new recruit. Don't forget to scan the horizons because we may have rough seas ahead. I'm sure we will weather through.

Answer 18

Sign me up. I was with the Nor'easters for the latest source-a-thon, and since so many of my relatives hail from New England, that would be fine. But I'm not sure I understand just how this works. I already have a boatload of photos scanned, but I haven't put them up anywhere - I only select some of my favorites to add to a profile. And, I've got lots of people I don't know who they are, and now one left to ask! Anyway, sign me up.
