Event Details:
You can look at the details of a particular event by left clicking on the event. You can print the details using the Print View button and you can email an event to yourself or a friend, and send yourself a reminder from here as well, as long as you use Internet Explorer as your browser.
Finding an Event:
You have two ways in which you can find an event:
1. If you know the date, you can use the drop down box on the far left to Select the Month or you can use the Next Month button on the far right if the event is not too far in the future. Once you have the month displayed on your screen, you can go to the day of the event.
2. You can search for an event, or a series of events, using the Search function in the middle of the screen. As an example, if you search for Quilting Group, your results will show all future scheduled Quilting Group meetings. If you do not get the search results you expect, it may be that the event was worded differently when it was added to the calendar. NOTE: If you are searching for Women's Fellowship Breakfast, you need to search using Womens (without the apostrophe) due to package limitations.
