What qualifies
- It’s local. In Crockett, Rodeo, Port Costa, or Tormey, or close enough that a neighbor would make the trip.
- It’s open to the public. Anyone can come, even if spots are limited or sign-up is needed.
- It’s free or low-cost, and the price is stated. No one should have to ask what it costs.
- There’s a named person to contact. Someone a neighbor can reach with a question.
- The person running it said yes. If you’re telling us about someone else’s event, point us to them and we’ll ask. Public town celebrations are the exception.
Events with alcohol are welcome. Tell us if it’s 21 and over and we’ll mark it. The one thing we can’t list is a campaign event, or anything for or against a candidate. That rule applies to every 501(c)(3) nonprofit.
Two kinds of listings
Which one you get depends on one question: does it keep happening?
Ongoing
A weekly class, a monthly open mic, a group that meets on a schedule. Something a person can still go to next month.
- Shows on
- The Calendar, the Inspirations page, and Discovery Journey results
- Stays up
- As long as you keep running it
Event
A party, a concert, a workday, a festival. One date, or once a year.
- Shows on
- The Calendar
- Stays up
- Through the day it happens, then it comes down by itself
How placement works
- No one pays to be listed, and no one can pay to be shown first.
- Order is set by rule, never by hand. In Discovery Journey results, a listing shows for the people it fits best, based on their answers.
- Similar listings take turns. When two or more are a close match for the same person, the order is drawn fresh for each visitor.
- Being a partner doesn’t change your place in line. Partners get their own page on the site. They don’t get shown ahead of anyone else.
What to send us
Copy this, fill it in once for each thing you host, and send it through the contact form or by email to contact@crockettmuseacademy.org.
Name of the class, group, or event: What happens there (a few sentences, in your words): Who it's for (ages, beginners welcome, 21+?): Where (place name and street address): When (date, or how often it repeats): Start and end time: Cost: What to bring, if anything: Sign-up needed? Any limit on spots?: Who to contact, and the best way to reach them: Website or social links: Flyer or photos (attach them): Does it come back every year?: Anything else we should know:
Timing
- Send it at least 7 days ahead. The calendar is updated once a week.
- Less than 7 days? Send it anyway. We’ll try, but we can’t promise it makes it.
- You’ll see it first. We send you a preview before anything goes live.
Keeping it current
If your time, place, price, or contact changes, tell us and we’ll fix it. For ongoing listings we check in every few months. If something has stopped running, or we can’t reach anyone about it, the listing comes down. It can go back up whenever you start again.
