This website is being touted as a complete rebuild of the Downriver Things website, begun in 2013 and last revised in 2019. As a result of this major format change to the WordPress provider, we have had to make changes, most importantly in the layout of how we present our material.

The blog function will be the heartbeat of the new site. What was once accessible by the “history” tab on top will now be grouped into sections of the blog in a specific year range. This, most importantly, is being done in an effort to conserve on bandwidth and sheer size. Remember, the latest Weebly edition was 93 pages in length, so to condense it will result in navigation ease.

With that being said, as of February 2026, we are still learning on the fly with this new, exciting venture! Check back often.
