City of Stevens Point
Community Calendar Entry Form

Each line of the form holds as many letters as a line on the TV screen.
Please read all instructions before you start entering information!
This form may also be used for ongoing activities and services. (See Below).
Events entered here will also be featured on our web site's
Special Events Calendar.

This is not the application for use of the Fire Station Station One Electronic Message Board.

 

Please Read these Instructions:

 

Your Announcement:

  • Events must be open to the general public and noncommercial or nonprofit in nature.
  • Fill out this form 2 to 8 weeks before your event.
  • Submit only one entry form. You can put multiple events on one form, or wait until one event is over and then submit another form for your next event.
  • DO NOT USE ALL CAPS LIKE THIS.
  • Abbreviate words only when necessary.
  • Avoid hyphenating, but follow grammar rules if you must hyphenate - do not arbitrarily cut words off.
  • Extraneous information may be removed by us (see below).
  • You MUST include the name of the event, its sponsor, date and time, and location.
  • You don't have to use every line.
  • Do not use blank spaces to center your information, all text will be centered automatically.
  • Forms that are not filled out according to the instructions may be deleted.
  • You MUST click the "submit" button to send us the information.

Helpful Suggestions:

When filling out the form, please include just the required important information:

  • Event Holder/Sponsor, Event Name, Date, Time, and Location.
  • Fill out that information first, and then include a brief description of the event and/or other important details on any remaining lines.
  • Viewers have just a short time to read the announcement, so any extraneous information will clutter up the TV screen, making your important details (above) harder to read.

"Just the Facts" - Keep it simple for maximum effectiveness!

  • Calls to Action are unnecessary and may be excluded on TV: "Come join us at" "Come on down" "See you there!" "Loads of Fun!" etc.
  • This information is unnecessary and may be excluded on TV: "We invite you to attend" "All are Welcome" "Open to the Public" etc.
  • State, Zip Code, and the Year are unnecessary and may be excluded on TV.
  • We reserve the right to edit your information.
