Website Updates

Hello All,

I am going to update the Portuguese Club’s website and would like some feedback.

I am not sure if any of you have had the time to look at the current site. If not I was hoping that you would take a minute or two to look at it.

Here is what I would love to hear from you:

1. What do you love and don’t want to see go?

2. What do you hate?

3. What is hard to find and you wish you could find easier?

4. What is missing?

5. How do you like the colors? I am not sure if I want to stay with this neutral tone or if I want to make it modern and use a black background... I am open to suggestions.

6. On the pages that need information if you have something I can and should include or update – Please send me the info.

My goal is to make this site attractive and easy to navigate. As the club grows I want this site to be a place where you can learn about our history and culture and learn what you need to about the club, upcoming functions, past functions etc.


Lastly, if you did not get my other email regarding photos, I am in need of Golf pictures, and any others that you can send me... Read below to see what we have so far... Also, when the site is updated this will be part of our site... At the moment they are separate but I will get them merged.

Please send photos to me at Rose@ClubeUniaoPortuguesa.com (do not use the Gmail for pictures, for some reason I don’t get them).

If you would like to see what I have up thus far click on this link: http://rr.smugmug.com/NaugatuckPortugueseClub


Remember I am still uploading but I would love to get your photos up as well.

Thanks,
Rose

Sao Paio is here!

This weekend as most of you know is the Sao Paio (de Torreira) festival at the Naugatuck Portuguese Club. The club has been celebrating the Sao Paio festivities for many, many years and it is not just a part of Portuguese Culture and tradition but is a part of the Naugatuck Community as well.

As always the food is awesome, the music this year is going to be the best that we have had in many years.

Friday night we have CNT Entertainment - they are the best DJ’s I have come across in a while.

Saturday Eratoxica will “rock” the club! This summer they won number 1 band at a Luso Vox contest in Algarve Portugal. They have also performed live on Howard Stern and have several great albums both in English and in Portuguese.

Last but not least Sunday we have Luis Neves and Centerfold they are also a great band and have been around for many years. Luis has performed with many American rock bands but has also stayed very true to his Portuguese roots. He too has several albums that he has recorded with his band.

There are the SPIN Soccer Tournaments and lets not forget the 3K Road Race. Lastly, the traditional folklore rancho dancers and the parade which this year will be at 5pm on Saturday ...
