yampavalley.info is "dedicated to gathering and displaying valley-wide information, created for and by citizens". In pursuing this mission, yampavalley.info provides a quick, easy and affordable way for non-profits in our community to gain a website presence.

Through the City of Steamboat and SpringSips (a local internet service provider), yampavalley.info can help your organization create a website with its own domain name. For example http://treadofpioneers.org points to the Tread of Pioneers Museum page on yampavalley.info.

We welcome non-profits in the Yampa Valley to obtain a website presence!

PROCESS:

1. First, we encourage you to take a training class on how to add, edit and create a web page for your organization. See "Training Info and How to Become Involved" for more info.
2. Next, create your page (or pages) on the respective information section of the site.
3. To secure the url, contact Stephanie Reineke at SpringSips, email slr@springsips.com or tel: 970-871-0913.

SpringSips provides free domain name hosting for the price of a dial-up account with their service. The domain hosting service also includes email forwarding, (e.g. info@steamboatpets.com emails forwarded to a personal email account). Their basic dial-up service for non-profits is $10.95/month for 20 hours of access. We greatly appreciate all the efforts Springsips has made to assist non-profits in our area!
