We’re not going to lie! The Free Press online calendar is the best interactive community calendar in town.

It just takes your participation to fill it up with events.

Any user can post events to Grand Junction Free Press’ online Event Calendar. And by doing so, it automatically gets entered into the print edition of the Free Press.

The calendar is on the home page at gjfreepress.com. Just scroll toward the bottom.

Click the “Submit an Event” button in the upper right side of the calendar. This will open a submission form. Fill in the details, event type and dates and times of the event. (All fields with a * are required information.) Click the “Next” button to preview the information. From there, click “Back” to edit or “Submit” to finish.

Your event will be entered into our system for an editor to approve and post to the site. Please give us at least 24 hours to approve and post your event.

Get reminders about events in our calendar sent to your e-mail or via a text message to your cell phone, or tell your friends about it.

Click on any date in the Events Calendar to see what’s going on that day. Find the event you want to be reminded about, and click the check box next to it.

Then from the pulldown menu that says “Event Actions,” choose what you would like to do. Steps will guide you through properly completing each action.

If you have any problems, call Web Editor Tracy Dvorak at 683-5613.
