I have been working on a prototype Event Calendar that will be easy to maintain and avoid some of the random formatting issues that have been problems in the past. I have setup a MS Word Document with an imbedded table which is where the event data will ba maintained and updated. Following a change, the table will be copied and pasted into the forum. It is not a perfect solution but I think it will be workable. Let me know if you have any suggestions or comments. This is what it looks like:

Stephen - all the links work on my computer - what browser are you using?
Kurt - this is set up as a Word Document with an imbedded table. Editing requires copying the Calendar from the forum, pasting it into Word or a compatable word processor - like PAGES - doing the editing, copying the table and pasting it back in the Forum. A little bit cumbersome - but it solves the many formatting problems that have affected the Calendar in the past. Note - the calendar is intended to maintained by the Events Officer and not editable by the general membership.

Lots of room for all kinds of events!Just as a reminder - events are created by the members - like Bruce And Stacie and their wonderful Stonehenge events. We need some people to step up and put together some drives - one day or weekend over night events that get people out motoring on some back roads and enjoying the company of the great people in the club. In the past we have had successfull winery vists, a tour of Wanapum Dam, a vist to Grand Coulie Dam - a visit to the Ellensburg Wind Generating Facility - lots of local coffee get togthers followed up with a drive over some interesting roads. These events don't just happen - they are the result of sombody taking the inititive and doing the work involved in planning, oprganizing, and leading an event. We need some people to make things happen!

How does this look? I’m still trying to figure out how to change the link to one word (i.e. FEEDBACK on April 21’s Tulip Rallye) without having the loooong link. I have no idea how to change it. I may need some schooling from you Jack.

That looks a lot nicer. Just type the word like this and then go back and select that word, and then click the "Insert Hyperlink" button () and then type or paste the URL.

I just signed up Groovie for the Pioneer Days parade in Lake City on 4 August at 7:00pm staging at 5pm and thought it would be fun to have many minis with Groovie. They said we are all welcome! http://www.lakecityfestival.com/english/parades.html Who wants to parade on a warm summer evening?

Hi Jack, the event calendar that the PS Miata club is using might generate an idea or two: http://www.pugetsoundmiataclub.org/main_page.php It would seem logical to have the event names link out to an expansion with the details - 'not sure why they aren't doing this. here's the link to their 2012 calendar: http://www.pugetsoundmiataclub.org/calendar/calendar.php?caltype=F&calMonth=0 and here's the link to the other miata club: http://www.clubmiata.com/ |

Did you notice that they even have a cool LOGO!??? There is one event that they list that could be interesting, the Fathoms of Fun Parade. There is also an Event not listed that is big, a car show where the entire town is roped off and there is a Car Show on the waterfront and all over town, 100's of carts participate from all over the Sound. |

I know... I should've updated the Event Calendar before I left on my road trip to AMVIV via OR, CA, NV & AZ. Stay tuned....
In the meantime, here's the link to view the latest pics of our road trip that commenced on 6/5/12: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.4278404804704.2182413.1423775293&type=3&l=35ede86a93

Try this link Genie. However, keep in mind that I still have LOTS of photos to add from my SLR camera. These pics were taken with my iPhone: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.4278404804704.2182413.1423775293&type=3&l=35ede86a93

Nice group of photos, except the warning light! Hope that was resolved without problems.
The Vegas temps would have made me look for a rock to crawl under but the other temps looked great :-) Was that Crater Lake before Mono Lake? |

Yes, that was Crater Lake. I forgot the photos were out of order. I just fixed it.

Jan - Did you want me to add this to the calendar and get some more participants? You should start a new thread here on this if you haven't already: Drive Event Suggestions

I have started a new link for the 2012 calendar at a glance. I will do my best to keep it up to date, so please be patient with me as I'm learning by trial and error. Thanks so much to Jack Grouell and Kurt Hammond for their help in creating this. I couldn't do it without you!

I have tried to drive to Crater Lake 3 times and all three times I have been stopped by closed gates/unplowed roads. Bummer! Looks like a nice lake. A buddy did a biology field trip with University of Oregon Biology Dept. to the island in that crater.
You had a nice trip. |

We actually did have to detour around the lake to the west because of snowfall. I think it took us about 50 or more miles out of our way, but it was well worth it. Wait until you see the pics with the real SLR camera (and not my iPhone)!

Nice photos, Brenda! I bet your SLR ones are awesome. I love when your MINI is part of the scene. Crater Lake is such a beautiful lake - incredible color. Back in the day, I once took 36 lovingly-composed photos of Crater Lake only to find out later that the film didn't advance in the camera! I only did that error once I tell you!
