FAQ

Why a community calendar?
The Park District's vision statement, "creating opportunities for a healthy community" goes beyond our own facilities, parks, and programs. This interactive community calendar is designed as a service to our residents, allowing you to see at a glance what is going on in Osweogland on any given day. We hope that you find it useful, and that you visit often to see the many special events and activities provided by our governmental agencies and vibrant community groups and organizations.

Who maintains the site?
The site is maintained by Oswegoland Park District staff, and the Park District reserves the right to post, deny, delete, move, or edit any entry without notice.

Who can submit community calendar entries?
Any non-profit agency, organization, or individual can submit an entry as long as it is community focused, not business focused, and the public is invited, or it is considered to provide broad-based, useful information to our residents.

Why aren't public meetings included?
We feel that public meeting times and locations are best communicated through each agency or organization's individual web site. To help make this information easily accessible, we have included a link to these web sites from our community calendar page.

What do I include in my entry?
The event title is what displays on the calendar, so it is best to keep it short and concise. The rest of the details will display when your event is opened. Take advantage of the description section. This is where you can provide any information not covered by the form fields. Think about questions that people might ask and answer them here!

How will I know if my entry is accepted?
It will appear on the calendar! Although entries typically will appear within a few days, please allow us at least a week for posting.

What if my entry needs to be changed or deleted?
Contact Margaret Gienger at 630.554.1010 or mgienger@oswegolandpd.org. Changes will be made as soon as possible.
