2. When at the editing area for the page, click the “Elementor” button to enter the Elementor editor.
3. Click the “Add New Section” button to create a space for editing.
4. Select the 2-column layout.
5. Hover over the gap between the 2 columns and drag the left column edge until it occupies 65% of the width.
6. Click in the left column to show the widgets available on the Elementor sidebar.
7. Hover over the Text Editor widget (a cross icon appears) and drag the widget to the left column. A blue bar should appear to indicate the widget is in the column during the dragging process.
8. Garbage text will initially show in the widget
9. At the top left of the Elementor sidebar, click the 3X3 dot icon to again display the widgets available.
10. Drag the Heading widget into the area immediately below the Text Editor widget.
11. Drag another Text Editor widget below the Heading widget.
12. Repeat steps 9 and 10 to create another Heading and Text Editor widget.
13. This completes the widget placement for the left column of the page.
14. Return to the widgets display (top right 3X3 icon).
15. Click the Settings icon in the Elementor sidebar lower left.
    Turn the Hide Title switch to “YES”.

Add main content

1. Click in the top Text Editor widget, enter text for the first paragraph. With the cursor at the end of the paragraph text, push the Enter key to create a new paragraph.

4. Enter the first  paragraph text in the text widget below the “Board Members” heading.
5. With the cursor at the end of the first sentence, hold the shift key down and press the Enter key to create a new line. [Holding the shift key down adds a new line directly below the sentence. Pressing the Enter key without holding the shift key down creates a new paragraph with an empty line below the sentence.] Enter the second sentence.
