First welcome everyone to the website for our Local. I hope you enjoy looking around the site and take some time to take a look at what has been put together for our membership. Some things for you all to know.
- This site has a public portion that any and everyone can see. They don’t have to log in, register, anything. Everyone can see the public side. Then there is a “private” side of the site that only members that have registered and been approved by the websites admins, will be able to access, view, and or participate.
- We would like it if everyone registered on the site. This site will become a major tool for communication throughout our local and its activities. To this end I am going to try and come by every station on every shift to try and get everyone registered while I am there, and then accepted into the site.
- There is a good amount of functionality on the site that will be up to this body how much of it we use
- The PAC fund will be able to accept money through this site behind the member wall and through the use of PayPal.
- Charitable event where we have registration will be able to accept both the registration and the entry fee’s IF the organizer so wishes.
All in all this will be a good tool for us. Expect a bit of a learning curve, there will be mistakes I am sure, there will be issues I am sure. Just be patient and know in the end this will come together.
