I have been tasked to build a web site for my local Vietnam Veterans' of America chapter. Having been the admin for my high school class web pages since starting in the Spring 2008, I thought ClassCreator would be a good platform to build the site. I would like to know how many of these are on CC?; link to a list if possible. I did find one in New York (http://www.vva32.org/)that would work but I am not certain if my chapter members want to use the profiles feature - is it possible to build without that? Thanks

My first thought is actually a question. Is the site to be informational only? If so, will all the information be public information or will there be one or more possible topics/events that may not be open to the public? That is where I would start. The chapter members may not wish to use profiles but think of the work it saves for the membership committee in that members may update their contact information when it is convenient for them on the site. That is the first point of our sites -- they are membership based. You mentioned 'chapter members', which leads me to ask... why not have them join their site? Other points: You know all of this and more. I mention it as I worked for a veteran's association which gave me a good understanding of the needs and what can be done. Having members or not having members can be a toss up. In the end, if everything will be public and the chapter chooses not to have member profiles, you would be the only one with a profile that can be hidden. I hope you will invite us to view your site when you get it going or finished. Good luck!

Gwen I can tell you that it's been a long time since I set up our class site http://www.memorial69.com/ that I have forgotten much of the design stuff; thankfully Class Creator is easy to use. Patrick
