Your New Website is Here!


After 14+ years on the Wild Apricot platform, we decided it was time to move. It served us well until it was purchased by Personify. Rapidly increasing subscription costs, few feature additions, decreasing software reliability, and deteriorating technical support drove us to start evaluating alternatives.  The platform that provided what we needed -  content management, web-hosting, membership and event management software - as well as some additional features at a very similar price point is MemberLeap, our new home.

Moving platforms has been a massive project. In addition to transferring our database and legacy content, we have reorganized and simplified our web site structure. Things may not be exactly where they used to be, but we think finding them will be more intuitive.

When you log into the site, you will have a new, secure landing page - the Member's Area. This is where any directories and other sensitive information lives. We've customized it to be your dashboard, making it easy to stay informed and connected. Most of what you'll need is on the page in front of you, including your personal profile and account information (bottom), or is accessible with a click on the gray, Member's Area menu bar. 

We encourage you to poke around to find out what is where and give us your feedback. For testing purposes, we have enabled a few features that are new to all of us, such as Projects/Committees and Social Networking, to test how they might be used (or abused?) by the BrAt community.

We appreciate your enduring limited access to our old site while we packed up and moved 14+ years worth of digital accumulation! We ask your continued indulgence while we finish a bit more unpacking and settle into our new home. You can help us by taking the feedback survey and reporting any problems at the Website 311 link. Both are accessible from your BrAt dash!

Special thanks to our trusty BrAt testers, Penny Dougharty-Maher (DH72), Selena Maranjian (DH77), and Amber Perkins-Neal (DH86), who gave the site a good shakedown before we went live! And thanks to Michelle Pippin (DH83) for the use of her fantastic bangle photograph (home page) and Diane Knipfel-Slingluff (AB75) for the use of her photo of a flyer for the very first Brat reunion ever!  We found the perfect spot for it!  Can you find it?
