Mapleridge Recreation Centre Site Launch

Mapleridge Recreation CentreBlack Cap Design launched the redesigned & rebuilt Mapleridge Recreation Centre website earlier this year.  Mapleridge, located in Peterborough, Ontario, is a drop-in centre for people over 50 who are looking for social, physical and educational programs, activities and events.  Mapleridge is a community-based not-for-profit organization operating out of a beautiful new building in Peterborough’s west end.

Black Cap Design worked with the Mapleridge Board of Directors to develop a website that could be easily managed by staff and volunteers.  The site was developed using the WordPress Content Management System.  Black Cap provided onsite WordPress training for two staff who were quick to learn, and now manage the site independently.

The site includes a number of features including a perpetual event calendar, a ‘featured sponsor’ widget and photo gallery.  The site also includes a content slider where staff can advertise special events.  Mapleridge has been actively using the calendar, making it easy for their members to find dates and times of events and classes.

The new Mapleridge site was designed and built using responsive design, meaning the display automatically matches the visitor’s screen resolution and device type.  You can see how the new Mapleridge site looks on a range of devices using Responsinator, a responsive design simulator.

Black Cap Design also developed the new Mapleridge logo, assisted with domain registration and provides hosting.
