Last Saturday, January 20th, I went to the Logan County Republican Men’s Club breakfast for the first time in over 10 years. I had noticed that the Logan Democraps… er, Democrats… were advertising their website on bumper stickers and I found that we had none.

I did a sketch of a basic site that I thought would suit our needs, but my old friend CSS Float had turned it’s back on me. I was FURIOUS. Now, however, I have somehow managed to make it work something like what I had intended. I made a few minor changes simply for the sake of, well, simplicity.

It took me many hours this week to get that basic layout working, but I think I now have the tools and basic architecture that I need to make it function well.

Overview on the intent of the site so far:

• info on Men’s Breakfast
• info on Women’s Club
• info on local, state, and national races
• upcoming events
• endorsements
• philanthropy
• fund raising

With these thoughts in mind I intend to create a mostly static site without using a CMS this time. With the structure I’m giving it, my intent is to not have to manually update anything more than once a month (1-3 hrs. max). I will be presenting to the Executive Committee sometime soon.
