In order to enter an Agenda, you have to have a board meeting. A meeting is an event, due to start on a specific date at a specfic time. This event should also contain the overall details for the meeting, such as location, direction, and general topics of discussion.

To create a meeting post, you must enter an Event. To enter an event, first go to the USA Dance LA Group Home Page: http://www.centralavedance.com/usadancela .

In the navigation menu on the left side, you will see a link to "Create Event".

Click on this link, and you will see the "Submit Event" form:

You must enter the start and end date and time for the meeting. Please double check that your entry is correct and you have selected the correct time period (am / pm).

You must also enter a Title for the meeting. Anything that will signify this meeting, as opposed to any other, will do.

You can safely ignore the "Categories" section. These are primarily used for other types of events such as dances, concerts, classes, conferences, etc...

You must enter the meeting description in the Body section. Again, a general description of the meeting, and very importantly, where it will be held with directions and contact information. You have a full WSYWIG editor, similar to Microsoft Word, so you can format the description however you like. You can even include images.

Input Format. You should leave this at Full HTML.

Groups. You should make sure USA Dance LA is checked. If this content is private and specific to the USA Dance LA Board, DO NOT check "Public". Only check "Public" if you want the general public (i.e, anybody) to be able to see this post.

Attach new file. If you wish to attach a file to this post, such as a spreadsheet, pdf or word document, or any file containing information relevant to this meeting, you can do so by clicking on the "Browse" button and locating the file you wish to upload. Once located, double-click it and it will appear in the box above. You must click the "Attach" button to actually upload it to the site. You repeat this process for as many files as you wish to upload. If you do not click the "Attach" button, before you submit the page, the file(s) will NOT be uploaded.

When finished inputting information, please double check your entries. If you are satisfied, then click on the "Submit" button to create the Event.

If your submission is successful, you will see the message:

Your Event has been created.
