Let your voice be heard! MaconHistory.org is a website built by the community, for the community. Your input matters! What features would you like to see? What content would you like to be made accessible? As this project moves forward, we will continue accepting feedback and recommendations / suggestions until the final hard launch of the website. At that time, the website project will be deemed completed and no other major changes, other than maintenance, will be completed.
