Scam Alert. Members are reminded to NOT send money to buy anything. Don't buy things remote and have it shipped - go get it yourself, pay in person, and take your equipment with you. Scammers have burned people on this forum. Urgency, secrecy, excuses, selling for friend, newish members, FUD, are RED FLAGS. A video conference call is not adequate assurance. Face to face interactions are required. Please report suspicions to the forum admins. Stay Safe - anyone can get scammed.

Several Regions have held meetups already, but others are being planned or are evaluating the interest. The Ontario GTA West area meetup is planned for Saturday April 26th at Greasemonkeys shop in Aylmer Ontario. If you are interested and haven’t signed up yet, click here! Arbutus has also explored interest in a Fraser Valley meetup but it seems members either missed his thread or had other plans. Let him know if you are interested in a meetup later in the year by posting here! Slowpoke is trying to pull together an Ottawa area meetup later this summer. No date has been selected yet, so let him know if you are interested here! We are not aware of any other meetups being planned this year. If you are interested in doing something in your area, let everyone know and make it happen! Meetups are a great way to make new machining friends and get hands on help in your area. Don’t be shy, sign up and come, or plan your own meetup!

This looks like it would work, but we would need to designate a "caretaker of the events calendar":

@Jwest7788 - Can you give us an idea of the role and responsibilities of the "caretaker of the calendar"?
Not 100% clear to me at this time.
It appears that the calendar plugin I linked above works by creating a special thread type. The owner of a thread also controls the calendar, it's events, and appears to be responsible for the upkeep of the calendar (addition, removal, and editing of individual calendar events.)

That sounds like a lot more work than what I was thinking of, I was hoping for a calendar that any member can access to input an event. Shared access so members could sign up for the event on the calendar would be a bonus.
At the top of the Ubuntu (Linux) display is a date/time, if you click on the date a calendar for the month comes up and from there you can go to any month/date and input an event. Would adding something like this to the home page be possible?
