- Minor changes to the structure of a few pages were made to keep each page consistent.
- Sites & Buildings page was updated to make searching in LOIS easier. We are looking into how to search in Wisconsin as well.
- A Photos page will be taking the place of the Login page, since logging in no longer works.
- The biggest change is to the Map page. The map has been updated to reflect members of the Association, as well as to be more aestetically pleasing.
