Hi all, do any of you know of Events in your area that would be of interest to the people who visit/ frequent this site? If you can think of any. you could enter it into the Events Calendar or if you prefer email the name to me and I'll pop it in there for you. The Events don't have to be 4wd related, just interest for any travellers who may be visiting your area at the time and would like to attend.
Cheers
Deanna

Thank you Deanna for continuing with your volunteer efforts to get more Events loaded into our Event calendar. It is interesting that on our other site (www.triathlonoz.com) the Events Calendar is the most popular part of the site, with many hundreds of events, whilst no-one uses the
Forum. Yet on ExplorOz, people use the
Forum, but not only little interest in the Events calendar. The system works really
well - and is designed to help people know what activities are going on around the
places they intend to visit at different times of the year. This might be handy to people to know either when to visit or when to avoid an area depending on your viewpoint. We try to input all the
well-known Caravan/Camping shows around the country but our calendar includes categories for many other interesting types of events that we know many of our audience would find appealing. But its up to you to input the events for the benefit of others. We only provide the
tools and free promotion - event organisers (or anyone that cares), can enter an event - which includes date, time, price, links to website, email, phone contact, logo/photo uploads, comments/reviews, and of course some really cool ways for travellers to extract/download the calendar into your own Outlook calendar or pdf/print a wall chart in A4.

Thanks Michelle, I thought that if people on the
forum just mentioned what events are in their areas it would help others on the
forum to plan their trip around upcoming events if they so desire to attend. I think if more events are entered into the calendar more people will use it. If the event is 12 months away it still doesn't matter, most people plan their holidays that far ahead anyway.
I personally didn't realise the usefulness of this tool until I started searching for Events to put in there. I might toddle over to your other site and
check the events out on there and bring some over here if that is OK with you Michelle.
Cheers
Deanna
