How to use the Community Calendar Feature {video}

January 2, 2014 by Leave a Comment

The community calendar is full of fabulous fun for your family, but I know that it can be a little overwhelming to look at and find what you’re looking for. I made a video to help you get the most out of the calendar…and to help you fill up yours! Once you know how to sort through the items on the calendar, you’ll find it really easy to find what you’re looking for.

One reason we chose this calendar over the rest, was the ease of use and the ability for you to subscribe to events and sync them up with your own calendar. If you use the calendar on your mobile device, you’ll be able to send them straight to your personal calendar!

After you’ve watched the video, let us know if you have any questions.
