Our 5th annual 24-hour Genealogy Webinar Marathon was a huge success. More than 63,000 genealogists (63,108 to be exact) from 70 countries registered for the live 24 hour event. The 23 wonderful speakers from 7 countries helped all of us improve our genealogy skills, while even keeping some of our attendees awake for the entire marathon. Wow! 🙂
You've had so many wonderful things to say about the marathon. Here are just a few of our favorites:
“This has been the best 24 hrs. There was so much important information. Each Webinar was better than the last. This was a massive project to accomplish. Congratulations and Thanks to everyone involved job well done.”
“I just wanted to state that I attended some of the 24 hour marathon series yesterday. From the initial email received after registration; the further reminder; the reminder just prior; the click on the link to connect and the immediate connection and excellent presentations, the whole event was a master class of organisation. Congratulations to you and your colleagues for such an inspiring event.”
“Oh, yes, Geoff, there is a physical and mental toll, but I LOVE knowing that I am big-time learning with family historians around the world! This is my fifth marathon and I still don't know how you all do it. I'm in awe, but so, so grateful! Five years later, I still found 11 webinars and am so full of new ideas, inspiration and learning! I also appreciate the ability to go back next week and absorb more! You all rock!!!”
“Excellent marathon-I managed to attend all but 4! I love how personable and knowledgeable the presenters are. What an incredible gift from MyHeritage to the genealogy community❤️!”
I had no idea of the impact that our webinars made on you:
“My 2023 was filled much trauma. The 2023 24 Hour Marathon was one of the few bright spots of the year. I am finally starting to feel better and one reason was the anticipation of the 2024 24 Hour Marathon. Thank you so much from my full heart. This has been so healing.”
Another wow, and so humbling. Thank you.
Of the hundreds of hours that we at Legacy Family Tree Webinars, MyHeritage, and the speakers put into this event, we couldn't have been more pleased with the turnout, and with what seemed to be a flawless event.
