hey, whats up with the union web page. does any one know ? Are we changing it? SKM.
Actually,
When I updated the website we changed hosting companies, however we could not switch the domain to the new server. The previous host, and current host of the domain name only, has piss poor customer service and did not let us know we needed to renew the domain. I have called and emailed them and I have not heard back from them yet. Unfortunately, I cannot transfer the domain name to the new host company. I am still working on this.
