About the Calendar

The Guilford Town-wide Event Planning Calendar is a service of the Guilford Tourism Committee and has been created to assist town organizations in scheduling major events. An event placed on a particular date does not guarantee the availability of that date. The process of securing sections of the Town Green or the Fair Grounds must be pursued in the usual manner.

What the Calendar does do:
  1. Allows organizations to coordinate events years in advance.
  2. Provides event information for newspapers and magazines.
  3. Provides event viewing for the local community and visitors.

Calendar Help

Navigating the calendar is quite simple once you become familiar with the interface. There are two ways to find an event:
  1. Browse through the months and find the event on its date.
  2. Search the calendar for your specific event. The search box is located at the bottom of the calendar.
Browsing through the calendar is an excellent way to find out what is happening on a specific day or during a specific week. Simply use the drop-down boxes in the upper right-hand corner of the calendar to select the desired month and year you wish to view and click the "Go" button.

Searching the calendar is the best way to find a specific event when you are not sure of the date it occurs on. Type in a key word of the event name (such as "taste", if you were searching for "Taste all of Guilford") into the search box at the bottom left-hand corner of the calendar and click the "Go" button. This will bring you to a page listing all the events that matched your search.

Once you can see the event you are interested in, click on its name to get its details. The details page that is displayed is formatted to be printer friendly and easily read. Feel free to print out a copy as a reminder for the event.

Thanks for the code ...

Thanks to all the developers world wide who share their code in the spirit of helping fellow developers. And, especially to Peter Tilbrook of ColdGen Pty. Ltd, who posted the inner working of this calendar on the Macromedia developers exchange. With his contribution and some code of our own this calendar was created at a fraction of what it might have cost.
