An Apology to some of our North American visitors.......
For various technical reasons, some visitors from the western United States have been routed to older pages on both our website and Y Blog. This is now being remediated and if you are reading this message it proves that the error has been resolved.
Gymanfu Ganu
On March 4th, WASNC is holding the Annual Gymanfu Ganu in Lafayette. More details are available from Idris Evans, see our News and Events page
Remember to check our regularly, not only for the Society's events, but other items of interest in Northern California.
The Web and Blog Sites
WASNC is still developing its website and electronic presence. Over the last few months, the Society has built its platforms, basically this site and the sister blog site, and is now seeking more content for both. Check back on a regular basis.
WASNC's Digital media is run by Terry Escott as part of the society's modernization plans.
Membership News
Members will be pleased to note that in addition to the new electronic presence, several major events are planned for the next months. Members will receive further information as it is available, either directly or in our members section.
Longer term plans....
When
you consider that just the nine counties California's San Francisco Bay Area
alone are bigger than Wales itself, you can imagine how hard it is to get people
together. Therefore, the Society's long term plan is that through its
activities, membership and digital media, WASNC will be the premier source of
Welsh information in Northern California, providing links to other Welsh-related
websites and organizations that will enable everyone to explore their Welsh
heritage.
