We’ve shifted things a bit to help spread the word about virtual events only. The rules are the same – if you want your virtual event included, please make a Facebook event, invite me (Alan Sims – you’ll have to friend me) and it will be included. I need enough lead time that the list can be put together the Wednesday before you want it listed.
