Community Calendar Guidelines

The North Olympic Peninsula Community Calendar provides a one-stop-shop for residents and visitors to see all of the area’s events, a forecast for businesses’ staff needs, and a planning tool when scheduling your own event. An event, according to Webster’s Dictionary, is something (especially something important or notable) that happens, a planned occasion or activity (such as a social gathering), and any one of the contests in a sports program. Listed below are guidelines to help you when submitting events to the community calendar.

  1. Before adding a new event, please take a moment to see if it has already been added.
  2. Events should be all inclusive, that is, everyone is invited!
  3. Examples of events that don’t qualify for publication:
    1. Funerals
    2. Personal sales
    3. Family reunions
