Partnership with Porter County Library System
On September 11, 2024, the NWIGS board resolved to enter a formal partnership with the Porter County Library system on future monthly meetings held in their facilities. They're excited about the free courses, educational resources, and information we provide to the community related to history and genealogy.
Refreshed NWIGS Logo
Sept. 21, 2024 - The NWIGS logo has been refreshed. While the previous version of the logo served us well, it was difficult to read at smaller sizes and we did not have high resolution versions of it for use at larger sizes. We hope that you like the new version of the logo.
TWIGS Newsletter Page Updated
