The following two sites, although similiar in appearance were designed and implemented separately.
http://gafirst.org/
http://ncfirstrobotics.org/
What is the number one goal ? Information for the 'insiders' ? Or information for the 'inquisitive'.
Both of these sites have a "landing strip". They are the fixed immobile boxes, for FLL, FTC, FRC. Newcomers to the site can quickly classify information and pick a box. For example if you have the "9 to 14 year old" interest you can click "read more" on FLL and drill down to state specific information for support, training, and events.
News articles fit below the "landing strip" and come and go.
The idea is to quickly jump start newcomers and get them a click away from starting a team. Folks that are 'insiders' can drill down the menus find what they need.
