Four web sites and a computer
The technology committee is happy to report significant progress--we have developed and implemented four web sites--one for each of the community granges and one for the pomona grange. These web sites supply a dynamic interface allowing all grange members to post information on any topic and for multiple grange members to post additional responses or information.
To date, Krist Novoselic has been busy posting information at the Grays River Grange web site, and Kathleen Morgain has been posting minutes at the Skamokawa Grange site. All grange members are welcome to add information, as well as post new information at the relevant web sites!
In addition, to further the efforts to expand access to Internet technologies for Grange members, we've begun building computers out of old used spare parts and training Grange members on how to use the computer to connect to the Internet, check email, and browse web sites. John Luthi, of the Skamokawa Grange, was the first recipient of such a computer and training, and followup technical assistance has been arranged with a neighborhood "computer genius-in-training".
Another powerful way to unite the community! Nice to see the patch on the Skamokawa Grange roof. Thanks, guys.
