When prompted, name the page "Cheat Sheet" and it will appear as an app on your home screen. On an android device, click on the menu and select "Add to home screen."
The Cheat Sheet lists a limited number of events that we think will be of interest to many people in our community. We don’t list everything that’s happening, and that’s kind of the point. For more information, you may want to consult the calendars on these other sites:
