HELP WANTED!!!!!!

I REALLY need someone to keep the calendar on this site up-to-date with all the events going on around the state. I know I use this calendar to try to make my decisions about what shows I want to attend, and I'm sure others do as well, but I know for a fact that there are a lot of shows not listed there.

I just don't have the time available with my business, otherwise I would do it myself for my own personal use.

I really hate to miss some events just because I don't know about them. It's just not real easy browsing through the Shows and Events forum to determine what shows are where and when, so this really would be a help to everyone.

ANYONE willing to help out?
 
I would help you out.
Is the happenings and event forum where I would get all the info??
I just want to make sure I would know where to go to get info before I commited.
 
ANY source is fair game. The idea of this is to have the calendar on this site reflect any and all events, shows, cruises, meetings, whatever, that we all might be interested in knowing about and possibly attending.

Listings on club websites, any general car show listings, anything at all as a source will work. I'm sure this will benefit everyone as the more eyes that see an event, the more potentially successful it will be.

The preferred format would be as much info as possible within the post on the calendar with a link to a webpage where more info and contact would be available for those wanting to know more.

In my case, the way I use the calendar is to simply browse the listing at the bottom of the main page and make note of which shows are taking place on which weekends that I feel I may have free to get away and attend.

I really do appreciate the offer of help. I know we are missing a bunch of events simple because we just don't know about them. If would help if the promoters themselves would post on the calendar, but I guess they already have their hands full....

Thank you!

Rich Z.

Are you trainable? :hehehe:

Or worst comes to worst, maybe you could just find events for MRS. XTREME to add into the calendar....
 
Bless you child .One of the reasons I joined this forum was to be informed and get involved with all the wonderfull Florida activities.Sadly i'm where I want to be.In three years i've never made one show or meet.

I hope that in time I can help a little more.This is the best Forums out there.
 
How about a common thread that can be posted in by members then the person in charge of the calendar can acces that thread and put the events in the calendar.

Rich:

I have been doing alot of those events already and will continue to do so....I think the calendar is pretty much up to date on shows. I see the CF gang also adds things, so I think we are in good shape. The only problem I see is alot of the gang adds a show with no information or links. If I had the access to edit these.....I could add more information....I think we will be fine.

I use this site to get alot of information:

You know I am always available to help!!

:hehehe: Jim :hehehe:

The "ULTIMATE CORVETTE PARTY" in Tampa is scheduled for November 22, 2008 and I will post information as soon as we complete the flier.
 
Thanks Jim. I just know I will read about an event in the forum here for that purpose, but often won't see it listed in the calendar. I think it will help a LOT if that is a comprehensive source of event information.

BTW, all members can set up the calendar to automatically send them an email notice for any event listed there. This is a great feature that will help those of us with aging brain matter to keep from missing something we may otherwise forget about. If any of you have not checked out the calendar, it may be well worthwhile becoming familiar with it's function.

One suggestion I could make is to just go through the Events and Shows forum on this site and try to make certain that all events listed there are also on the calendar. I think that would help quite a bit.
