Practical Tips for a More Accessible Club Site
The "Alt-Text" Rule
When posting photos from a weekend cruise or a "Show & Shine," describe the vehicle in the image description.
-
Bad Alt-Text: "IMG_001.jpg"
-
Good Alt-Text: "Red 1972 Dodge D100 pickup truck parked at a local park."
-
Readable Documents
If the club posts Bylaws or Meeting Minutes as PDFs, ensure they are "searchable" (text-based) rather than just a photo of a printed page. Screen readers cannot read text inside a flat image.
Event Planning
Since car clubs are social, use the Accessibility Statement to mention physical accessibility for meets. For example:
"When planning cruises or show locations, we prioritize venues with paved parking and accessible restroom facilities."
