Calendar functionality

The new troop calendar is a “public” Google calendar.  A great advantage is the ability to add the events from this calendar to an existing personal Google calendar that you may be using.  You can add calendars from friends, groups, businesses, etc if you have a proper link to the desired calendar.  The link to the Troop 22 Calendar is:

https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/troop22web%40gmail.com/public/basic.ics

To add this troop calendar to your personal Google Calendar, you need to log in to your own Google calendar on a computer (not mobile device).  Simply click on the link shown below:

When you click on the “+” next to “Add a friend’s calendar”, you should select the “From URL” option, and then you can point to another calendar by using a URL like that shown above.  The URL needs to be for a calendar in iCal format ( *.ics) like that shown above.

Simply copy and paste the URL into the box shown:

Then Click the “ADD CALENDAR”.

It’s that easy!
