Staying Up-To-Date...
There are a few options on staying up to date with the band's calendar of events. The easiest is to regularly visit our schedule page. However, there are a few options to utilize Google Calendar's sharing capabilities to include the band's schedule of events into your preferred calendar system.
- Google Calendar users
- iCal users
- Create a new calendar in iCal
- Command click on the newly created calendar and select "Subscribe" from the menu
- Enter the following URL in the "Subscribe to:" field http://www.google.com/calendar/ical/9aqoirufc0h1mrihk78us5mlgs%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics
- Click on the "Subscribe" button
- Enter a title for the calendar (perhaps "Mustang Band") in the "Title" field

- Enter a title in the "Remote calendar's Name" field (perhaps "Mustang Band")
