The Fireside Dance Club website is a dynamic database
driven club information and management system. It provides
basic information to members and prospective guests like a typical
website. It also provides a lot of club self-service features
to reduce the administrative effort by the activity planners and
board members for the logistics of planning and executing meetings and social events.
And, since we are also a social organization, we want to make it easier to
get to know more about our fellow members and make it easier to invite
more guests to help our mission and join us as members.
Each Fireside member is given a login account with a specific level of privileges on the website.
(more details at the login overview).
Once logged in, members will see many functional option links in the top
navigation banner at the top of each page including:
- Add User: Where you add basic contact information to someone we want to participate
in our social events.
- Event Calendar: List dates, hosting group, times, and details for meetings and social events.
- FAQ: Frequently asked questions and status updates.
- Feedback: Form for getting help, asking questions of the webmaster and/or board of directors.
- My Info: Updating your contact information for the directory.
We want you to be in charge of how much information you want to share and with whom,
more details about that on the help pages discussing
access and
privacy.
- My Preferences: Update your wishes about getting the newsletter, receiving emails, and sharing contact info.
- Who: Look up contact information (by default, only email is visible) about fellow members.
(The management of that is discussed under privacy.)
- Roles: Who is doing what in service to the club, including the board of directors.

Each of the links takes you to a page where you can query and list information about the club
and our events, and sometimes update information about you.
Remember that this is all to make being a member of the club more fun and to enhance getting
to know, enjoy, and ease the things we like to do most: getting together, socializing, and dancing.
If anything is confusing or overwhelming, click on the
Feedback
link in the
navigation bar and Jerry Bowes,
our Webmaster and Membership Director will get back to you to help.
