I don't know what to say. What should I include in the description?
Communications 101 is the best way to answer this question - Always include the Who, What, When, Where, Why and How in your description. Think of what would be interesting to you if you were reading the description of the event. You can start with an inticing question (e.g. Ever wanted to provide community service and have fun at the same time?). You can also indicate what the person or event will provide for people that attend (e.g. - Attendees will have an opportunity to learn more about the Domino Stacking Club and the upcoming competitions we will be attending. Come join us for the fun).

Do I have to be affiliated with UNO to post an event?
