CFH 2026 Events

For 2026, our event planning has started. We run numerous events every month, and this page will become a history of the events we held in 2026. The type of events Caloundra Family History holds includes speakers, training, events that support local heritage and history, trips to other family history societies, archives and libraries, and more.

Every month, Caloundra Family History members can attend Interest Group Meetings designed to help advance their research. Dates and times for all Interest Groups are listed on our calendar. If you are looking for information about a specific Interest Group, click its image at the bottom of this page to view a list of upcoming meetings.
