How do I build an Event?

The Event builder is where you put the Event together: where people meet, what they do along the way, and the plan they follow. You can save a draft as you work, then review and publish it when it is ready to share.

Build your Event in five steps

  1. Basics

    Name the Event, describe what brings people together, and choose how the group will meet. Set the participation format, any limit, and whether requests need Host approval.

  2. Details

    Set the times and places, describe the road and vehicle fit, and share what participants should bring.

  3. Activities

    Add things for people to find, answer, photograph, or check in at. Choose points and what participants send for each one.

  4. Schedule, Instructions & Documents

    Add the stops, maps, rules, clues, and other information that belong in the plan.

  5. Review & Publish Event

    Check the participant preview, complete the required details, and publish when you are ready.

The structure guide helps you choose where people meet and finish. The Activities guide shows how to make the things they do along the way.

Schedule and Documents

Use these entries for the parts people need to read or have with them: a meeting time or location, a route map, rules, instructions, a clue, an image, or a file. You can attach a document to an entry when it helps.

A Schedule entry gives information. An Activity gives participants something to do and a way to respond. You can use both at the same stop.

A Scheduled Time places an entry in the plan; you can also leave it untimed. A separate Reveal Time and audience control when its details appear and who can see them. See how timing and visibility work.
