You are viewing the Danish American Heritage Society (DAHS) website, located at danishheritage.org. I (Robert A. "Bob" Christiansen), in my capacity as the DAHS web coordinator, developed this site following a May 2015 mandate from the DAHS Board of Directors.
Our old site, DanishAmericanHeritageSociety.org, was written in HTML in early 2007 and was last updated in April 2015. As of December 2016 visitors to our old site are automatically redirected to the new site.
I found our old site to be fast, easy to navigate, reliable and robust, and visually attractive. However, The DAHS board recognized that the old site was too difficult to keep current via frequent updates, too limited in scope, and presented a dated appearance.
