Tips
1. Use a picture with an article whenever possible--a graphic will add impact to your event article everywhere that the article shows.
2. The Article Expiration date is set to a default value of one year from its date of creation. Change this to be at least a few years longer; some clubs set it for five or more years in the future. As you add more and more content to your website, you will have a richer history of content for people in the future to look back over. Don't shortchange yourselves by having your content disappear from your website prematurely.
3. Note that once you Preview the article, you will be able to see how your article looks on the same page that you are doing the editing on. This makes it very easy to fine-tune your article and get it looking exactly the way you'd like it to--this is a great place to experiment with different looks.
