Good point, there is no need to have a lot of sites with the same information links on them, but limiting the web presence to community web pages with pertinent information about the community itself with links to a major resource page might work. The same could be used for the regional organisations. The only drawback is how web pages are ranked and indexed by search engines which depends upon the number of pages linked to the site, the more links, the higher the ranking. If the pages are reduced, then so might the search engine rankings.

That is understandable, let's see what happens after the conference. Thanks for the input.
