Hi folks,
I am the new webmaster for MWT and the new site is in development. The site is at http:www.atrakehner.com/mwt. So far, the Black Brochure and the Awards Program information are online. The other areas are in development and in varying stages of completion.
One of the hopes is that we will have a membership directory online accessible by the public, perhaps with a map showing our locations throughout the Midwest (heck, I guess it is country-wide now...). While those of us who breed, train, or sell horses, or stand a stallion, will most likely want to be featured, we recognize that not all members may wish to have contact information available. Those that DO, please send me an email with any contact info you have. No grand advertisements, just a one-liner of what it is you do, plus your name, address, phone, fax, email, website, etc.
We will have a password-accessible membership list so that members can figure out who else is a member. I have received a hard copy of the list, but it does not have email addresses, only names and addresses. If your membership is not a farm membership, I may not have your farm or business names, either. Anyone who wants to update that segment may also send an email. Anyone who does NOT want to be included on the member-only list, let me know as well.
In the password-only department, we hope to post the current newsletter in full (including financial stats) and hopefully have live member chat "meetings," since our membership is geographically so far-flung.
When you notify me of any of these things, please be specific about which list your info is for (or which you are declining a listing in) to avoid confusion and your inadvertent listing/lack of listing.
Also, we need pictures. Please attach them as .jpg or .tifs to your emails (preferable), or send them by mail to MidWest Trakehner @ 1815 Lamerson Lane, Interlochen, MI 49643. If they are taken professionally, I need a release.
Also (my favorite word!  ), I would like to make a composite graphic for the front page (looks kind of bland now, to my thinking) and will assume that any photos submitted may be used for that purpose UNLESS you specify otherwise.
Comments from members are welcome on any of these issues.
Thanks everyone, and let's cooperate to make the MWT the fine informational and marketing tool it can be!
Regards,
Ingrid
