The Central Pennsylvania Chapter Web site has been given a makeover! Please let the webmaster know what you think of the new look. Also, don't be afraid to ask if you can't find a part of the site you're used to visiting. While I have sought feedback from the web committee and chapter officers, I'm always open to suggestions from chapter members - or anyone else who visits our site. Significant structural changes include moving the navigation links to the top of every page, moving the resources links to the right side of the home page, and updating the help/FAQ page.
