Help! Save Our Webmaster from Drowning!

I work for a small educational business focused on process training for purchasing managers.  Until recently, we used our Web site just to provide general company information.  But now, we're putting event information and registration materials on our Web site to support the up-to-seven workshops we hold each month.

The problem is our part-time Webmaster.  He can't keep up with all the site changes, he's whelmed in data. 

Can someone out there suggest a way we can handle these online functions more effectively with the only Webmaster we've got?  Any information would be greatly appreciated.

- Jack, Event Manager
