Hello,
I have a suggestion for having some sort of Calendar Banner, on the main page, for upcoming events. When a bunch of us met on Mon. night, I asked a couple of the new guys if they were going to be at the Spring Picnic and I got "Deer in the Headlights looks" from them. They hadn't heard about it and asked me the date and basic info. I realized that there isn't enough In The Face info for a lot of the members. I'm online at this site everyday and I still manage to miss some stuff, Some of these people are only on once or twice a week ( due to being busy with life).
It would be nice to be able to post small events, such as lunches, dinners, or drink gatherings. But more importantly, Events such as the two Klingspor ones coming up, and the North Carolina Woodworker annual picnic, should be posted so people can make plans for them. I know that we have a calendar, but I also know that peolple who aren't on all of the time don't go into it.
This is just my opinion, I really enjoy the site and comeraderie of fellow woodworkers and want to spread the so called 'gospel' of what's going on.
Thank you guys for all you do.
Jimmy

Interesting thought  Normally if someone has entered an event on the calendar, like the birthdays that are displayed over on the right side of the page, it should show up there. I tried to check to see if events like the Spring Picnic were actually on the calendar and I got a Data Base error as I tried to advance a month.
I think that making events listed on the calendar more prominently displayed would be a good thing, but those events would have to be entered on the calendar in the first place.

Honestly Honey, that will cost around $100 $150 $200, and I need a few more tools.

I am sure that something can be done along these lines. But I ain't knowledgable enough to make it happen nor do I have the access to the areas of the site that can facilitate the changes.
Will, Chris are y'all out there. Do you see the big SP in the sky signaling you
