Website Changes Coming | ||||||||||||||||||
|
May 15, 2012
-- In the next few days, we will be cutting the Wisconsin LSC website over to a new
system hosted by TeamUnify. The new system will provide better access to LSC information
and make administration easier. Nearly everything on the current website has been converted,
including the meet schedule, but there may be some bumps along the way. It may take a while
to learn where to find things. Please bear with us as we complete the cutover.
