General comments: When entering events, think of what parents will need and want to know about an event. We would like to provide everything they need (information about preregistration, childcare, etc.). Try to not leave any fields blank.

Data information

Title: Put the title in all caps (Taming Your Baby, The First Three Weeks of Life).

Ages: “Ages 3-17” or “Ages 4-6 with caregiver.” If this is Parent Learning, leave blank unless kids are allowed.

Venue: Choose a venue from the drop-down menu. If there isn’t one, leave blank and include address information in the address field.

Contact information: Please include a phone number -- and a Web address is always extremely helpful.

Start date/end date: Most times, you’ll simply enter the first day it happens in the first field, last day it happens in the last field (sometimes it’s the same date).

Time: If it’s a one-day event: 6-8:30 p.m., 8 a.m.-4 p.m., noon-1 p.m., 9 a.m.-noon. If it’s a recurring event on the same day every week, write: “Wednesdays 6 p.m., Thursdays 2 p.m., Fridays noon."

Event cost: “Adults $30, children $19” or "$19-$30."

Disability access/Free boxes: If the event is accessible (ASL-interpreted performances, etc.) or free (no charges whatsoever), check the boxes.
