Here are the basic elements of the hub concept. NCL, Inc. at www.nationalcharityleague.org will be the umbrella site. Each chapter that participates will have a web site under this umbrella. The name will be www.nationalcharityleague/chaptername.org . The chapters will be given a choice of 4 templates that will allow them to pick colors and graphics that they like. Each chapter site will contain: 1. A front page: a brief section about their chapter that can be reached by anyone searching for National Charity League. This will be the only public area. 2. A password entry area that will be based on the chapter database or list of members that they want to have access to their site. The password entry area will have an area that members can update their information (change of address, e-mail, etc.). 3. The password protected area will include: a. A member listing with address, phone numbers, etc. b. Philanthropies and schedules for activities c. Calendar d. Meeting Schedule (Patroness and Ticktocker) e. Newsletters f. Bylaws (searchable by keyword) g. Ticktocker Procedures (searchable by keyword) h. Standing Rules (searchable by keyword) i. Hours (this will be a database collection area that each chapter member will be allowed to submit hours through. The hours chair(s) will be able to ask for and get a report of all hours submitted. The individual members will also be able to get a summary of their hours as well. j. And finally, a chat area for chapter members. The cost: A one-time site set-up fee of approximately $500 (this could be slightly more due to the uncertainty of additional information that chapters may want on their site) and a $69.95 per month web hosting fee. I will train the chapter designated person on how to load their information onto the web area via a manual that I will prepare and at convention and phone calls. Our service provider will handle technical support for non-NCL content related problems. Once the templates are designed and tested, chapter sites could be ready for uploading within 2 weeks. The template design and testing will be done over the next several months if there is sufficient commitment from chapters. I'll pick a date of January 1, 2002 for chapter sites to be ready. It could be sooner but I have to make sure that there are enough chapters interested before committing my time to this project. I can't think of anything else on this subject. NCL, Inc. Secure Area Each President will be given a set of user names and passwords for her Board of Directors. If they are not available for your meeting, I will send them to each Board President via mail as soon as they are available. I am meeting with our hosting company next week and we will generate the ids and passwords then. The NCL, Inc. Secure area will have a directory, the National Reference Manual, NELLIE, Standard Form Bylaws and Ticktocker Procedures, a Calendar with meeting places and phone numbers, information on the chapters (including some names and numbers) and a variety of forms. There may be other things as the need arises. Target date: November 1, 2001. maryt@houston.rr.com
