Upgrade to Plone 5
Our website is built on Plone 4.3 which runs on Python 2. Support for Python 2 ends in 2020. Plans to have Plone 5.2 on Python 3 are in the works. To be sure we are able to maintain support and install needed security patches, we should begin the process of upgrading to Plone 5 in late FY2019 and complete the transition in early FY2020. We will get many small side benefits from the upgrane to Plone 5 like being able to have links in help text and importing events.

Migrate Files to "The Cloud" ~IT-Infrastructure
We have internal systems we can move to a cloud platform: office apps & files (apps, documents, spreadsheets, presentations), and graphic design apps & files (e.g. Adobe Creative Suite). Note that we already have photo storage in SmugMug and on website and video storage in Vimeo and YouTube.

Allow summary text to wrap around the photo on the front page of a listing GH2886
Currently it often happens that some of the text of the summary for an event or seminar listing ends up covered by the photo. Can we make it possible for the text to wrap around the photo? It's very frustrating to have to go back and forth and tweak the summary text so that it isn't covered by the photo!
0 votesWith the moving of the registration portlet to below the image (a while ago), text wraps around the image now.
Please do remember that images should be at least 400 pixels on one side (landscape or portrait orientation does not matter). And summaries should be very short, no more than three sentences. See our Publications Style Guide, https://www.mountaineers.org/volunteer/leader-resources/publications-style-guide, for more info.

Create more robust Offered expiration date/time
We'd like to be able to send multiple reminders of offered status and can't report or make emails that do that without a hard date/time added to the course participant and activity participant record in Salesforce
0 votesNow we have a single reminder email sent from our system with a “hard” date and time.
