This is an invitation to ALL community event planners to submit your fixed event dates and your planned and variable dates to one source. If we know in advance what is going on in our town on a specific date we can plan accordingly and can move variable dates to a different month. This will avoid competition with each other and foster much needed community support. It is our hope, that we can produce and publish a monthly and yearly community events calendar for our area. The success is depending on your input. Please forward your events either by fax, phone, mail, email or in person as soon as you can. Please click here for a printable form.
