American Legion Post 290

The new Stafford American Legion Post 290 web site has finally launched! This new site is quite an update from the old one and really gives the post a lot more control over their website, along with advancing them in to the web 2.0 age.

I volunteered to build this website since I’m part of the Sons of the American Legion, because both my father and grandfathers are and were in the American Legion. My dad is currently maintaining the content on the site I’m and taking care of all of the technical issues.

This is the first time my dad has used Drupal but he has quickly picked it up. The ability to edit pages directly by navigating to them and just clicking “edit” has made his life super easy and he can just focus on the content without having to worry about HTML and uploading files. The menu system allows him to rearrange the site and add new pages with ease.

This Thanksgiving I’m certainly very thankful for my talents & gifts and being able to help out this post, greatly simplifying their website maintenance and allowing any of the members to easily update content now. It’s truly great to see how Drupal can empower groups to do more with their website without needing to be tech savvy :-)
