Website Improvement Survey: It's a big deal to us!
We've received a bunch of great suggestions in the 2014 Website Improvement Survey. We wanted to post them on the website so everyone can see what we're planning and doing to better our website. We really want to start working on every suggestion now and get them finished ASAP, but unfortunately that's not a realistic goal. We are completing additions or changes based on whatever suggestions we can do at the moment (for example, things like designing a logo take time, whereas showing archives of old newsletters is much more simple). So, stay tuned and keep checking back, because we're constantly growing our suggestion list and completing changes! |
