Web hosting services

[zscoundrel]

The best (well, kindest!) way to describe the group is 
recreation/re-enactors.  They are mostly well educated people that are 
interested in studying and recreating the middle ages. (600 to 1600 AD)

In some ways they are like the KC Renaissance festival, but more 
historically accurate, with real tournament style fighting, garb, food 
and scholarly studies of the art and science of the time period.  Unlike 
the renfest, we have events year round and we are much more serious 
about the scholarly aspects.  It is a great group, but one that has to 
be experienced to be believed!

I am working up the official web site for the local KC chapter and need 
to find hosting services for the web pages and email for the officers.
Currently it is located on my personal RR homepage, but because of 
issues in the past with previous web masters, the group wants it hosted 
on an independent commercial server so it isn't the personal property of 
  any one person.  (Each time the web master changes, we practically 
have to recreate the site, and that is counter productive to growing a 
viable site.)  I am comparison shopping right now to find the best place 
to have it hosted.
