How do I change information about my Club?
To report changes in Club meeting time, location, or Club President, Secretary, Treasurer, email directory@rotary5170.org  the changes which may be posted on the next newsletter and within a couple of weeks on the website.
How do I add an event to the District calendar?
Hover the mouse over the Calendar button and chose Login. Select your name from the dropdown list and enter your password. Once you've added the event, click on 'Preview' and then 'Save' when you are satisfied. District staff will review the entry, and if appropriate, approve it for posting.

My name is not in the drop down list, how do I login?
  • Look at the names in the drop down list on the login page. If you see one of your club members, perhaps a Past President, ask him/her to share the password with you or someone in your club that will do calendar entries. A webmaster is best but not necessary.
  • If they've forgotten their password, they can click on the link to retrieve it, it will be emailed to them.
  • The District is not presently maintaining the DAS database, no new passwords are issued, the passwords should be handed down to the president or designate from year to year.
How do I change an event to the District calendar?
Only the person who originally added the event can make a change. Login (see above "How do I add an event to the District calendar"?) and select the particular event to change it.
How do I have something posted to the District web site?
Club events should be added to the District Calendar (see above "How do I add an event... ").

All other requests, i.e. web pages, should be sent via email to webmaster@rotary5170.org.

How to prepare your information
Pages should be attached to your email as Word documents. Tabular data such as calendars or rosters should be sent as a table inside the Word document or as an Excel attachment.
Notes for better web pages
On the web all caps is equivalent to shouting: DON'T!
Keep paragraphs short, 4 to 5 lines at most, bulleted lists work well.
Posters and forms can also be made available for download from the website generally as a PDF file (Adobe Acrobat file) - you may request that we convert your Word form to a PDF for you.
How do I report website problems?
If it's a problem with the website itself, send an email to webmaster@rotary5170.org.
If it is a problem with an event on the calendar, contact the person who posted the event.
