2017 International German Genealogy Conference
 
This first ever international German genealogy conference hosted by the International German Genealogy Partnership (IGGP) lasted three days, Friday July 28 thru Sunday July 30. It took place at a large Marriott hotel located in the suburbs northwest of Minneapolis. Over 700 attended.
 
This conference was planned and run thanks to the efforts of volunteers from most of IGGP's member societies. SGGS was one of the IGGP founding members and played a role in helping plan and run the convention. See the IGGP press release for more information.
