Calendar Tips

The Arvada Associated Modelers’ events calendar automatically generates an iCal feed for all upcoming events.  This feed can be downloaded and imported into popular calendar and scheduling applications such as iCal, Google Calendar, Outlook, Thunderbird, etc.

Import All Future Events

All future events can be imported into your calendar application by downloading the ics file here.  Double-click or import it into your calendar application and all future AAM events will automatically be displayed in your calendar.

Subscribe to Event Feeds

Some calendaring applications (such as Apple iCal and Google Calendar) allow you to subscribe to a calendar feed.  This is advantageous in that any updates AAM makes to events will automatically be displayed in your calendar without the need to download and import the ics file again.

Import Single Event

If there is one or more events that you are interested in and would like added to your calendar, you can go to the individual event page and click on the “iCal” link.  This will download the ics file to your computer or device and can be imported into your calendar application.
