While still in development, the robots text file is temporarily blocking search engine indexing of the demo home page. The demo folder may be deleted once the main site is converted and ready for formal release. The new site web design conversion to CMS makes it easy to add, edit, or delete content, yet the time to complete 70 pages may still take another 1-2 weeks.
