This website is designed, first and foremost, for you.  The people who live in, and are interested in living in, both The Village of Turner Trace, and the Town of Avon.  We want this site to become the center of your Turner Trace On-line Community.  Make TurnerTrace.com Your Homepage.  You'll enjoy what we have in mind for you.

Here's just a sampling of the many exciting things this site will bring you:

• Internet Search:  Through our Partnership with the web's best search engine, Google.com, we bring you Google SafeSearch.  Here's how Google describes their SafeSearch Technology:

"Many Google users prefer not to have adult sites included in their search results. Google's SafeSearch screens for sites that contain this type of information and eliminates them from search results. While no filter is 100% accurate, Google's filter uses advanced proprietary technology that checks keywords and phrases, URLs and Open Directory categories.

When SafeSearch is turned on, sites and web pages containing pornography and explicit sexual content are blocked from search results. Google strives to keep the filtering information as current and comprehensive as possible through continual crawling of the Web and by incorporating updates from user suggestions. If you find sites that contain offensive content in your results, even with SafeSearch activated, please send an email with the site's URL to safesearch@google.com and we will investigate it."¹

• E-mail:  We plan to bring to the residents of The Village of Turner Trace their own e-mail system.  Each and every family will be able to have their own E-mail address @TurnerTrace.  A simple, easy way to show pride in your Community.  Be "yourname@TurnerTrace", and show your pride.  This feature should be available soon to all residents of The Village of Turner Trace.

• The Shoppes at Turner Trace:  There will be a number of stores in Downtown Turner Trace, and we want to give you easy access to them.  All stores downtown will be encouraged to participate in having a web presence at The Shoppes at Turner Trace.  It promises to be a simple and convenient way for you to check out what sales and events your local merchants may be having in your neighborhood.

• On-line Chat, and Message Boards:  Meet your neighbors on-line and find out who has a Playstation system for sale.

• Games:  Need a break from your busy day?  Have a couple of spare moments to relax?  Need to keep the kids occupied while you finish cooking dinner?  Simple punch up your homepage, and try your hand at one of the games available.

• School news:  In addition to the link directly to the Avon School System, your Homepage will have a section dedicated to your child's education.  Need to know what's for lunch on Wednesday?  Or when that football game is?  It's right at your fingertips, just a click away, on your Homepage.

• Community News:  If the Homeowner's association is having a meeting, we'll tell you when.  If it's happening in The Village of Turner Trace - you'll know about it.

We have plenty of ideas planned for this website, but, as we said before, it is your website.  If you have any ideas of what you want to be included in it, let us know.  We'll do our best to be your Internet Home.
