About the Website

Welcome to the new AMA District II Website. We needed to make this change to update our software for the forum. Everything is still available on the website so take a look around to find your old favorites.

Your old login should still work, if there is an issue, please send an email to the Webmaster.

If your club is having an event, send the webmaster an email with the information and we will post the event on the calendar for you. There is still a lot of work to go on this, so any suggestions are welcome. I will be adding modules to the site from time to time to make it better.

There are a few bugs still left in the site, and I am working on them. This website is a work in progress and will always be updated to keep District II on top.

Thanks, Ray Kappes, Webmaster of AMA District II Website
