Member Biographical Info

At the recent Meet & Greet a new member suggested displaying members’ bios.

Our web site has always had the capability of storing members’ biographical info. It is a standard part of your profile. A few of you have listed your boating experience and positions held in the Georgian Yacht Club.

Until now that information only appeared as a foot note to a member’s news post. Since few of you make posts, no one saw what you had written

Now I have added Biographical Info to the pop-up that appears when you click on a member’s name anywhere in the Directory.

You can add your own bio. by logging on and visiting Edit My Profile.
