Help with listing an event

Education
1

I have been a member for a while but mostly in wood and so I am not sure how to do this:

I would like to present prepared topic material as part of a presentation

in one of the meeting rooms, ideally the theater room with the lectern

I would like to list it several weeks in advance to promote it

with postings in the hallways and also want to make it free to the public. I would like for the public to know of this event.

Where do I list this and how can I get approval of the promotion posters.

I would like to hold the meeting Tuesday evening October 18th, 25th and Nov. 1st

I have been a member: So you are entitled to use facilities. oh, and Welcome

I would like to present prepared topic material as part of a presentation in one of the meeting rooms, ideally the theater room with the lectern As a member you can reserve a room for an event or schedule a class. A no cost. If you can find a sponsoring a committee it may qualify for an Honorrium

I would like to list it several weeks in advance to promote it The event/calendar sytem will show it up a minimum of 7 days if you schedule it with the absolute minimum of time. Schedule it three weeks ahead and it’ll be there 19 on event calendar

with postings in the hallways and also want to make it free to the public. I would like for the public to know of this event. Bulletin boards are available for all members use - be respectful and not “hog” the boards. Signage on walls is limited and discouraged - pretty much just DMS official events or so it would seem

Where do I list this and how can I get approval of the promotion posters. Go to Events tab on home page and schedule an event. You’ll need to create a profile in order to use. Then follow the instructions. If room available - it’ll be yours to use.

I would like to hold the meeting Tuesday evening October 18th, 25th and Nov. 1st You will have to schedule multiple events. Not sure if system allows three at once. But there’s been upgrades

thanks for your help

I think I was successful

except that I had trouble with date and times function and ended up

getting 10/17/16 7-9pm

and 10/24/16 7-9pm

in the lecture hall

and wondered who I might ask if it could be changed to

tuesday 10/18/16 7-9pm

and tuesday 10/25/16 7-9pm

in the lecture hall

these dates and times were open on the calendar

4

Note: Minimum time for getting honorarium. You can schedule stuff for the next day if you aren’t applying to get money.

5

so just submit again and ask for the other dates

there is no honorarium involved

and I was just having trouble with the date and time function

6

it is still not taking the dates I asked for

not sure why

they are open on the calendar for that room

who can I reach out to

Your event is in the queue and will be reviewed. If no one objects it will appear on the calendar in 48 hours. It appears you did everything right, you just have to wait.

Thanks,
Alex
