From Chapter Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

In preparation for building your new Chapter or Council site on the new.tu.org website, we have compiled a brief list of suggested content items. In order to make the Chapter Site Training webinar productive, please work within your chapter to gather this starting content.

Starting content for building your new chapter/council site.

  • 12 or more unique, good quality photos of members, places, and events.
  • Contact information and general chapter/council “About Us” content
  • Meeting and Event details - address, time, and location
  • Blog posts, 3 to 5 ready to go
  • Project profiles to highlight conservation
  • Message board topics
  • Home Waters information
  • Chapter Newsletters
  • Social media links for your Chapter/Council (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, Google+, and Pintrest)


Example Chapter sites on the new.tu.org

  • Ferdinand Hayden
  • Central Massachusetts
  • New Hampshire Council


As you can see from the beta sites, you will have access to several tools to help promote your chapter/council activities. All of these tools will be easily editable from your web browser. You'll also have a few different template designs and color schemes to pick from to make your site unique.

Please let me know when you have gathered all this content and I will work to schedule your training session. I am looking forward to talking with you soon.

Kind regards,
