NorCalPCA - Event Posting Guidelines

NorCalPCA welcomes members to share their events on NorCalPCA’s online events calendar and NorCalPCA Members Facebook Group. 

A NorCalPCA member should be present at the event and include their contact info in the Event Description.

Before posting an event to the calendar,  please read the Member Event Posting Guidelines below. When you post an event, you are agreeing to following guidelines:

Member Event Posting Guidelines

Event restrictions:

  • Cross-promotional postings, fundraisers, and third-party events from organizations are not permitted unless approved by NorCalPCA beforehand or posted by an official NorCalPCA Partner. The purpose of any event on our calendar should be to build community and bring together NorCalPCA members. Those wishing to reach out and share items that may be simply of interest to the NorCalPCA membership are encouraged to share and participate on the public NorCalPCA Facebook page or private NorCalPCA Members Facebook page, which are open forums.
     
  • Events must be inclusive (no discrimination based on race, ethnicity, religion, sex, gender, sexual orientation, age, physical ability, or otherwise) and family friendly (no pornographic or hateful material). This does not mean that you can’t, for example, have a meetup at a bar (where those under 21 are not allowed), go on a strenuous hike (of which not all members are physically capable of doing), go to an art gallery with nudity, or go see a comedian whose act includes some adult humor. Use your best discretion.
  • If Members wish to use NorCalPCA resources (e.g. funds, hardware, digital assets, etc.), please reach out to your Regional Rep or events@NorCalPCA.org.

 

There are three types of events:

  1. Free events: If you want members to RSVP through NorCalPCA’s website, by emailing you or another member, or do not need members to RSVP at all, then create a Free event.

  2. External events: If you want members to RSVP through another website, such as Facebook or Eventbrite, create an External event.

  3. Ticketed events: If you want to limit the number of members that can RSVP, email Events@NorCalPCA.org the details of your event to create a Ticketed event for you.

 

The following information is required for your event posting:

  • Event Name
  • Location: Type the full address (please also include the name of the location here or in the Event Details)
  • Event Start Date & Time
  • Event End Date & Time
  • Event Teaser
  • Event Details:
    • Please include a short description of your event.
    • All events must include the contact details (name and email) of a NorCalPCA member that will be present at the event. If you do not wish to share your contact info, please email Events@NorCalPCA.org and we can work with you.
    • Members must include instructions on how to RSVP for the event.
    • If the event is taking place in a public location, guidance should be provided in the “Event Details” section of the Event page on how to find the NorCalPCA member listed as the Contact at the event. For example: "Look for the woman/man with a NorCalPCA Member Event sign / wearing the white baseball cap / standing by the front entrance / etc.”

 

Managing your event posting:

To edit your event, click on the gear icon near the top right-hand corner of the window and select “Edit” from the dropdown menu.

If you chose to have members RSVP through the website, click on the gear icon near the top right-hand corner of the window and select “Attendee List” to view a list of people that have registered for your event.
