This is a customizable content module that you can edit to display any information you'd like on your home page. This can simply be a text box, or you can include photos, or a combination of the two. Play around with it and be creative!
In order to edit this section, you need to click the "Edit this Page" link at the top of the page (for site admins only) and then select the "Custom Content Module"
Note: Don't forget to change the title of the header from "Custom Content Module" to something else that will describe the content you decide to place in this box.
