Do you have a group or club for Skidaway residents? List it in the Skidaway Island Directory of Groups!
It could be a social group, sporting group, interest group -- any group that is organized primarily for Skidaway residents, and that wants to invite other people to learn more and join.
The directory of groups can be found here:
skidawaytimes.com/groups/
Here are step-by-step instructions for how to add your group to the directory. If you would like additional help, please post a question or comment below!
-- How to Submit a Group to the Directory --
Step 1: Register for an account on SkidawayTimes.com, or log in to your existing account. You can find this under the "My Account" menu.
Step 2: Go to the Groups Directory by choosing "Directory -> Groups" from the menu
Step 3: In the left hand menu, find the dropdown menu labeled "Add Listing" and select the "Groups" option
Step 4: You will be presented with the form to add a group. Proceed to fill in the form with your group information.
-- Tips on Filling out the Group Information Form --
Tip 1: Select whether the group is based on Skidaway Island (which includes groups that are primarily for Skidaway residents) or not.
Tip 2: If your group already has a Facebook page, you can copy the Facebook Page URL into the "Import Details from Social" field, and it will automatically import all the key information about your group. If there is not a Facebook page, leave this blank
Tip 3: If you are the person who will be managing the page information (like the club President or Secretary) then mark yourself as the Business Owner/Associate. This will allow you to manage the page going forward.
Tip 4: Enter the Group Name and a description of the group.
Tip 5: Select the type of group from the list. Examples include "Community Service", "Sports & Athletics" etc.
Tip 6: Add contact information for the group, like a phone number, email address, or website, so that people who want to join or learn more can contact you.
Tip 7: If you have any photos or logos, add them. You can re-order them after uploading. The first one will be the image that is featured in the directory, so use a logo there if you have one.
Tip 8: Submit your information, and then review the preview you will see. If you want to make edits, select the "Make Edits" button, otherwise select "Publish".
After you publish your listing, I will review it for completeness and appropriateness (i.e. no spam), then it will be published in the directory for everyone to see.
