June 14, 2003 The African-American Genealogical Society, Cleveland, supported the 8th Annual Oberlin Juneteenth Heritage Days Festival which was sponsored by the Oberlin African- American Genealogy and History Group, City of Oberlin, and Oberlin Chamber of Commerce. The festival's goal: "To bring all Americans together to celebrate our common bond of freedom through the recognition, observance and historic preservation of Juneteenth in America".

At our display area, we were able to share a variety of genealogical information with interested parties, both young and old, from diverse cultures, and various localities (including Oberlin, Cleveland, and Columbus). (Photo of Cathy Neal, AAGS Public Relations Chair)
