Updated website

Hi everyone, just updated the [YVYouth](http://www.yeringtonvcf.org/yvyouth) website to use a blog format.  What this means:  all news entries will show up on the front page in listed form, instead of a static page that says the same thing each time you come visit.  Also, on trips we will be able to upload pictures and videos straight to the front page of this site.  Pretty sweet, no?
