Issues & Projects for October / November
- Discovered a major glitch in the Calendar on 11/18 - multiple events just went missing. Sent in a tech support ticket right away, but they are slow to respond.
- Met with Kate Kotan to review the information she learned at the financial seminar she attended that might be useful to WayNet.
- Took vacation on October 25-26
- Extra updates to keep "featured" section current during election, trick or treat, etc.
- My computer continues to get slower / lock up and I spend a significant amount of time waiting for it to respond, rebooting, etc. This, in addition to the fact that Microsoft Windows 7 will no longer be supported by the end of the year means we need to get serious about a possible upgrade.

- 2019 Safety Village Trick or Treat
- 2019 Veterans Day Parade
- Fall Scenes
Website Maintenance:
- Several issues surrounding the calendar. Working with tech support.
- Still searching for fix for "robots.txt" issue that Google is returning for our calendar section. Any help appreciated!
My To-Do List:
- Still need to work on transferring data from Access into a Google Spreadsheet so we don't lose the information.
- Website Overhaul - review log analysis, research technical options and trending layouts
- Ongoing: Schedule guests for County Connections.
- Ongoing: Make calls on members/potential members
