The following is a rough procedure for setting up an event
- Gauge interest in your area by starting a topic in this forum and asking for potential attendees.
- You may be able to ask interested users in your area to assist with preparations. This does not have to be a solo effort.
- Locate a suitable location for the meeting. Most hotels have a limit on how many people can be present in their conference halls.
- Based on location availability and community suggestions, choose a suitable date and time for the event.
- When you have booked the location, edit your topic's title to abide by the guidelines.
- Update the first post of your topic with as much information as possible in order to attract attendees.
- Create a method for users to RSVP for the event.
- After the event has taken place, be sure to update your topic with summaries, photos and videos so that the entire community is able to join in.
