Interactive Google calendars are good, but the smart google-people haven't figured out how to wrap the text on them yet.  So, they expect you to click on the fragment of info you see to get the rest of the information.  Not perfect, but at least you have the entire 2011 season at a glance. 
• Cruise with blue arrows (top left calendar corner) from month to month.  
• Clicking on the 'Agenda' (top right corner) will get you stuff listed in chronological order, instead of 4 weeks calendar - the entire 'Agenda' is listed below the U86Cal.  
• EXTRA! EXTRA! Click on the the little shady icon in the left corner of TODAYs date to get 4 days of a weather forecast. 
• Yes, the map shows the correct location for each event:) 
This calendar includes:  Continuing Education presentations, our Unit 86 Spring and Fall meetings, field trip(s) and Garden celebrations (because you will be asked to staff them).  If you would like to add something to the calendar post your event(s) in comments below or email me.
