Connecting Beyond ConnectUU
For Events
Registration Form: A Google template event registration form has been created, using the same questions as were used in ConnectUU’s event registration and is free to use. The Google template will now allows event coordinators to edit and alter these questions. Where is this located? You can link directly to the form here, or search “Unitarian Universalist Young Adult Conference Registration Form” in Google Docs Template Gallery. Click the “Use this template” button and a copy which you can edit will be automatically saved to your Google docs account Do I need a Gmail email address to use this template? No, but you will need a Google account to edit a Google template, which can be created with any email address. Who do I ask if I have technical problems? Google Docs Help has an expansive troubleshooting section to walk you through any technical issues you might face. Event Calendar: You can also list your events and search for others on The Hub Calendar. To have the calendar shared with you so that you can add your events, email yayadirector@uua.org. Or just email us with your event info and we’ll add it for you. Both the Event Registration Template and the Event Calendar will soon be added to www.uua.org/youngadults.>> Note: None of the events currently on ConnectUU will be cancelled, but please do not add any additional events or groups.
