Website Updates

  Hey everyone, the website has some new updates! We've added the "Amazon Smile" link to the site header and we've also updated the main menu. The site colors have been updated and as I'm sure you've all noticed, the homepage is brand new. The Club pages are now all on one page in a new Spreadsheet style format. This was done to "lighten" the site and reduce clicks for the user. The spreadsheet is searchable so please give it a try. The site pages also include a new breadcrumbs menu at the top. This was done to help the user with navigation. That's about it. It doesn't seem like a lot but it was certainly a lot of work, so we hope your experience is improved. Thanks for reading!
