Hi Everyone,
We have had 18,183 Visitors to the new website since we changed over in Feb 2006. We currently have 306 Alumni and over a hundred photos on our site. The main goal of this site when it started back in 1995, was to provide a way to link old friends together. Although we have these numbers we don’t see a lot of community. We think there’s a lot of this going on, but it’s not visible on the site. We would love to get a more dynamic site.
We are looking at ways to expand the site and may have to rent a new site so we can be more flexible about features we want to implement. If we do this we will need help from people for every aspect of the site. We will need people to write articles, design and layout and web programming. We will try to import the current database so people don’t have to resubmit info.
What features would you like to see implemented on the site?
- Local news from the Mission?
- News from the members in the area about the church there?
- Forums?
- Currently Serving Section?
- Announcements and Reunions?
- Organised reunions in Winnipeg/Regina/Sask?
- Email Newsletters?
- More Meetups?
- Regional Meetups, i.e. Europe, East Coast, California, etc?
- Should we add a paypal link to have people contribute to the web hosting or not?
- Should we just create a new Facebook Group instead?
- What other features should we implement?
Thanks for your Support,
John Hellewell and Mark Coffey
