Signing Up for an Event

Our organization will provide a link when we are seeking hosts and attendees for an activity. When you click a link to attend an event that is associated with an activity, you will need to select the specific event, provide your contact information, and (sometimes) agree to a code of conduct.

Although you do not have to be logged in or a registered constituent on this site, logging in ahead of time (or registering) may be helpful.

Step 1: Access the Main Page for the Activity

Click a link to the activity. Typically, the links to activities are displayed on Web site pages or you may receive a link in an email message.

Step 2: Search For the Activity Event Located Near You

1. Click Find an Event to Attend. The Search page displays.
2. For:
   • Event Name, enter all or the first few letters of the name of the event if you know it.
   • Location , enter the City, State, and Zip that are most convenient for you and then select the Radius from that physical location that you are willing to accept. (Note that a search based on a Radius will not work unless you also provide a Zip code.)
   • Date Range , use the pop-up calendars to select the range of event dates that you would like to see. You must click on the date to close the pop-up even when the correct date is already selected.
3. Click Search. The list of events that meet your criteria will display. (If you are not satisfied with the results, click Clear and repeat this procedure.)

Step 3: Select the Event

1. Click the name of the event that you would like to attend. The Web page that describes this event opens.
2. Click Yes, I want to come to this Event. The signup form displays.

Step 4: Complete the Sign Up Form

1. Enter your Name and Email Address. (If you have logged in, this information will be pre-filled for you.)
2. If you plan to bring other people with you, enter that number in the Number of Guests field (be sure to add yourself to that new number).
3. If you do not want your name to display on the Guest List on the event activity page, click the Yes, you can show my name on the guest list checkbox to remove the checkmark.
4. To change the number of days before the event that you want to receive the email reminder, click the appropriate choice from the drop-down list.
5. If the Attendee Password section displays (which means you are not a registered constituent or have not logged in), enter a User Name and Password, and then enter the Password again to verify it. (Note: Providing a User Name and Password makes it easier for you to log in and change your RSVP information if necessary.)
6. If a Code of Conduct displays, review it and then click the Agreement checkbox associated with it.
7. If any Additional Questions display, please answer them to the best of your ability. We only ask these questions to improve your experience at this event.
8. Click Finish. The main Web Page for the Event will display again and, if you have not removed the checkmark from the option, your name will now appear on the Guest List.
