IMPORTANT INFORMATION

With profound regret and reluctance, I announce 12-29-25 that I will be discontinuing the MWRC Regional Conference website effective with the conclusion of its current web hosting period (6-3-26). Several factors contribute to this decision, but the primary ones are my declining health and the obsolescence of the software utilized for the website’s creation and maintenance.

This website was established on 3-15-05 with the invaluable assistance of numerous individuals whose names I cannot enumerate here. I extend my sincere gratitude to each of them for their unwavering support in the creation and upkeep of this website over the past two decades. Over the recent years, updating certain information has proven to be a significant undertaking

The information contained on the website is exclusively owned and maintained by me (as indicated in the fine print at the bottom of the Home page). This information will remain accessible on the site until the specified end date and can be readily copied by anyone who desires it. As I understand it, upon the expiration of the hosting period, the website will cease to be available, and access to any of the information will likely be lost

Given the MWRC’s membership of over 550 members, I am confident that there exists an individual within the organization who possesses the expertise to establish and manage a new website.

The domain name or URL (www.mwrcblueknightsmwrc.com) is owned by me and has always been paid for by myself. The Conference has never paid anything of this and at this time I am uncertain if I will keep it or not.

Ride with Pride,

Wayne Schwartz
MWRC Webmaster
