DUMC Website – 2.0

History:

This website is the second version of a website for Damascus United Methodist Church.  It was initially built during the summer of 2011 by:

Charlie Hulcher – Charlie was the architect, designer, programmer, implementer, etc. (he did it all) of all the technical features and functions of the website. He built the website between his graduation from High School and his matriculation to the Univ. of Maryland, College Park. Charlie did a magnificent job and was truly inspired in his work.

Kent Engel – Kent was the person who created nearly all of the initial web pages on the site (almost all derived from the previous website), modified them to create a somewhat general format for the pages, tested the site and worked with Charlie to improve the design and functionality of the website.

Hundreds of hours were put in by both Charlie and Kent to bring the new website to life.

Special thanks needs to be given to two key supporters of the development of this new website: Pastor Linda Motter and Pastor Walt Edmonds.

Website Transition:

The website development was transitioned to Polly Edmonds Baldridge in early August of 2011. Polly, along with Cathy Scarbrough significantly improved upon the initial work Charlie and Kent did and have continued to make improvements to the website making it the high quality website you see today.  Polly and Cathy deserve a great deal of credit for the website as it looks today. 

Key Website People:

Cathy Scarbrough (our Webmaster) and Polly Edmonds Baldridge – Together they will be responsible for the overall look and feel of the website and keeping much of the information up-to-date.

Linda Motter is leading the effort to further the development of the website.
