Hi everyone, and welcome to Athenalink's brand new forums. It's more that just a fresh paint job. It's an entirely new bulletin board platform called "FUSION" robust with many exciting features including most of the old one's you've come to know and enjoy.
As before you have two ways to enter the forums. You can go through the MAIN INDEX which is located here or the FORUM INDEX PAGE which can be found here.
If you were previously a member of Athenalink, your old login and password should function just fine, if for some reason it doesn't you can re-register above.
One of the features we really like about the new forums is the ability to add current news and sports feeds that automatically update throughout the day. These can be found on the right hand side of each forum page. We will periodically be changing them from tine to time. There are also many additional features of the new platform which we will be rolling out in the weeks to come.
We hope these changes will help make your Athenalink experience more rewarding!
