Event Date

You can provide one or more Date & Time specifications for your Event. Enter multiple dates on separate lines separated by the RETURN or the ENTER key. You cannot have more than one date or time per line. Even if you have multiple times on the same day you need to have a complete date and time on each line.

Example: January 2, 2000 2 PM or 2000/01/02 2 PM. Please note that the second format is yyyy/mm/dd; i.e., year, month, day.

You can also enter the time in 24 hour format (e.g. 2 PM would be 14:00 ). If you leave out the time it will be recorded as 12:00 AM.

Choose a subject

Choose one or more subjects for your posting. To select more than one, hold down the CTRL key (for PCs anyway...) as you click on multiple items. You must select at least one category.

If you are not sure which one to use, then use 'General.' If you'd like to suggest new categories, please click here to contact us by email.

Author & Contact Info

For Author name, email, and phone number, please enter the information for the person creating this posting.

If you are the contact person as well as the author, click the Contact=Author checkbox (already clicked for you as a default), and leave the Contact Name, email and phone fields blank.

Otherwise uncheck the checkbox, then enter the name, email, and phone number information for the contact person or organization for this event in the 'contact' fields.

The Contact Name/email/phone will be shown in the event's listing page but the Author information will not.

Either the email or phone number fields must be filled in for author or contact.

Event Description

Enter information about your event: what it's about, where it is, who would be interested, age groups that are appropriate, and so on.

The first few words will appear in summaries that users will see when doing searches, so you might want to say something special at the beginning of the message.

If you have a lot to say, you'll probably find it easier to write on your own computer and upload the text from a file saved on your hard disk. This can be done by using the 'Upload' field that's below the 'Event Description' text box. Please read the instructions for that area before using that approach for the first time.

Note that the text will be displayed according to the Structured Text rules. more...

Upload

If you want to upload the text for this event, enter the file name or click Browse to select a file.

Please note that the text must be a plain text file, and not a word processor document (such as a file saved using Microsoft® Word™, for example).

If your file is a word processor document, please reload it into your word processor and re-save it as a text file. Most word processors have a command similar to FILE/SAVE AS where you can choose among alternative file formats.

The uploaded text will be displayed according to the Structured Text rules. more...
