Hi Folks!
I have figured out a way to be more efficient using Google Calendar, saving me from hours of coordinating RSVPs. #AlsoKnownAsTorture
1) I will fill out the Google Calendar Item completely with details (time, date, location, costs), and send you an email via Google Calendar.
2) I will NOT send a separate email via Google Groups. (We'll still use Google Groups for communication, but not for RSVPs.)
3) Families will RSVP on the Google Calendar Item that is in your inbox.
>>> RSVP No matter what -- YES, NO, MAYBE. Three Choices.
If you don't already know it's a Yes or No, please give me a MAYBE.
4) Your RSVP will magically appear for me & show up on your Google Calendar.
OMG I can't believe it took 3 years to figure this out. I blame it on my Iron Levels.
You don't have to -- but you are totally missing out ! #IWouldMarryGoogle
If you don't already have a Google Account, you can take your Existing Email Address and make it a Google Account by following these directions.
Thank you for doing this, it saves us all from having to get a new App like Facebook, Discord, or BAND App.
You have to RSVP YES or MAYBE for it to appear in your calendar.
Before today, your calendar was automatically populated, and I couldn't tell who is RSVPing, because everyone has it already in their calendar. They didn't have to say "yes" to get it.
Thank you for doing hard things.
1) I have pictures (below!)
2) I'm very happy to help. Please let me help! All of our lives are easier when this is set up, and I am really helpful.
OMG YES! I hope to share Sept-Oct-Nov-Dec-Jan in August, and Feb-Mar-April-May-June in December.
>> Big things will be shared ahead of time, as far in advance as I can possibly share them.
My Part -- Filling out the Calendar
Your Part -- RSVP Yes / No / Maybe
Thank you,
Christine
