Some More Updates

Here is the brief story – The old (circa 2016) Alumni Directory has been partially restored. It is just a list of all who were registered on the site by mid-2016. No contact links, no photos, but if there was a short Bio, that link will work (though info might be outdated). There may be further updates regarding a new Alumni Directory in the future, but we will see.

Website Updates Feb. 1

No job and cold weather means website gets attention. In addition to new yearbook covers in the last post, some pages that were part of the old website (pre-2017) have been restored. The Yearbook Dedications, Ontario High School, Wayne Middle School, and Walworth School pages have been brought back to life. The Contact page has also been fixed (sorry, I did not know it was broken). I visited the Internet Archive (I can’t believe this exists), and was looking at the site from 2016 and earlier. I put so many hours into getting it working just the way I wanted back then. Despite the fact I will probably regret it, I made some tweaks were made to the styles, as there were some things I wasn’t happy with on the current site. There could be a few issues I haven’t found yet. Though using WordPress has made many things easier, they hook you in for free, and then everyone wants to charge you monthly to get the “premium” features, which conveniently include things everyone wants/needs.

By the way, don’t be alarmed by the “not secure” warning in your browser when visiting this site. We aren’t doing any financial transactions here, so it’s not an issue. To get that removed, it will cost another couple hundred a year. I don’t think it is justified.

Yearbook Covers Update

The yearbook covers page has been updated. 1998 and 1999 were finally added, and several between 2010 and 2021 added. Still missing 2011, 2015, and 2017. So 69 out of the 72 Wayne Eagle yearbooks are represented.

1950 Yearbook Cover

Finally managed to get a 1950 Wayne Eagle yearbook cover image. Not that I had to look far, but it is nice to always have a camera in your pocket. By the way, this was the very first Wayne Eagle yearbook.
