October 1,
2021
The Events Spreadsheets that Hosts use to login attendees have been updated and now are more friendly to small screen devices like laptops.  HOSTs are always advised to go to the website and download a 'fresh' copy of the spreadsheet for each event.  Updates to these spreadsheets occur often whenever there's an opportunity for improvement. Don't miss out on the latest features.
Follow this  link from almost any page on the website.

You can always verify the version you have by looking for this revision number on tab1.
Tip:  The theater spreadsheet has had a complete redesign.  Check the version date in the upper left-hand corner.  If the one you are about to use is older than 2022-0224, discard it and get a fresh copy from the website.  You'll be happy you did.

May 2018
The Eagle Eye Committee has slaved away on the June update.  We think we now have an emerging process for the electronic Newsletter and Website updates.

Please help by reviewing these pages on the website.  Test the links, look for errors, typos, etc, and send me any comments, suggestions or corrections.

1) The Coming Events now has an awesome new look, thanks to a suggestion from Jeff, our new Sr. VP.  Follow this link:

2) The Newsletter "landing page" is now where all the Newsletter links in the website lead to.  This is also the page that members will see when they click on the link in Randle's eBlast each month announcing the latest Newsletter.  Check it out.  We think it provides a lot of useful info that will steer members to the latest flyers, and alert them to any changes.

3) The printable event calendar has the same format as the coming events page.  It will be included in the last paper NL (June-July) soon to be mailed out, and in all future electronic NL's.  Check it out:

4) As always, the "What's New" page alerts members to what's new and updated, and provides quick links to relevant pages.  Check it out:
April 2018 The MMC website has been updated.  We continue to make changes and improvements, helping us move toward the all electronic environment as painlessly as possible.  A small committee has been working behind the scenes to restructure our process.  Here's some highlights:

1) The Coming Events page has been overhauled to make it more user friendly, with improved organization and display.  Follow this link.
http://marcomensclub.com/coming-events.htm 

2) The printable version of the Coming Events page has a new look.  This 9 page complete calendar of all events will replace the current 3 month calendar in the newsletter, starting with the last paper NL (June-July), and continuing with the monthly electronic versions.  See box in the upper lefthand corner of the coming events page to access this pdf.
http://marcomensclub.com/ComingEvents2/MMC-comingEvents.pdf 

3) The Newsletter "landing page" has a new look.  This is the page you "land" on when you click any of the "Newsletter" links throughout the website.  It is also the page that will be sent in the eBlast that announces the new Newsletter each month.  It now provides direct links to new and changed flyers for the month, and other stuff.  Take a look.
http://marcomensclub.com/newsletters.htm 

4) The Home page has a box at the top directing members to the Dues Invoice.  
http://marcomensclub.com/index.htm 

5) The announcement page advertises some of these recent changes and provides a link to the Dues Invoice.
http://marcomensclub.com/announcements.htm 

6) We have a fairly recent improvement to the New Member Application.  Prospective members can now choose between the traditional paper form, or an electronic version (spreadsheet) where they can enter their information electronically.  This form automatically verifies that the email addresses have been entered correctly.
http://marcomensclub.com/join.htm 

7) The relatively new "Cruise" page is proving to be popular among Cruisers.  It provides more info than ever about all active cruises.  Be sure to check it out, especially f you are going on the ABC cruise this Saturday .  Many of you will want to print a copy of the beverage package!  When the bartender says the beverage you requested is not in your Classic Beverage package, just whip out the list! Stuck out tongue winking eye
http://marcomensclub.com/Cruises.htm  

8) The form on the website that members use to update their information has been enhanced.  It now sends the update information simultaneously to the Membership Chairman and the eBlast Manager.  The member now receives an updated "Confirmation" page after submitting their information.
Form:
http://marcomensclub.com/email/email-form2.htm 
Confirmation:
http://marcomensclub.com/email/thanks2.htm 

9) The What's New page continues to provide good place to start, particularly if you haven't been to the website in a while.

February 2017 ATTENTION EVENT HOSTS and CLUB OFFICERS:
There are two new website features, both available from the
 "
MMC OFFICIAL FORMS"  page.

(1)
There's now an improved Excel spreadsheet for logging in event attendees.  You are encouraged to use this handy tool, even if you are a beginner spreadsheet person.  The spreadsheet is very smart and does most of the heavy lifting for you.  It will also allow you to create groups and table assignments, record meal selections, print a check-in sheet and print name tags for your event if needed.  You can also login any expenses you may incur when hosting the event.

There is an Illustrated Tutorial to help you understand how to use the spreadsheet.  Questions?  Email me at MARCOMAN357@AOL.COM, or call 239-537-1061

You should always download a fresh copy of the spreadsheet for each event, in order to get the latest updates. 

How do you get a copy?
From any page in the website click on "MMC OFFICIAL FORMS" under the BUSINESS tab:

Scroll down to Item #2D, click on the Excel version you need, and download the copy.  The link to the Illustrated Tutorial is at the bottom.  See #3.  It's a good idea to read this tutorial, even if you are an Excel Power User.  Here's a screen shot from the "Forms" webpage.

(2) There is also now access to many past event flyers in our 500+ flyer archive.  Check out the new "Past Events" page.  These can be useful in planning new events.  Info about cost, venues, entertainment, time, etc, can all be found on the old flyers.
The link is on the same "MMC Official Forms" page shown above and below:  See item 2G).

The two new cruises are:
(1) June 2017 -Rhine River boat Cruise

June 2013 Are you having problems with the drop down menus on our website?  Do they open and then remain open, so that you can see multiple drop downs at the same time?

The problem seems to be related the Window 7 users who have Internet Explorer version 10 installed on their computers.  IE10 was designed for Window 8 and touch screens, but is suposed to work with Windows 7. However, the internet is buzzing with problems and conflicts, and lots of folks are reverting to IE9 which was designed to work with Windows 7.

IE10 replaces the existing version of IE (typically IE9) on Windows 7 -- it does not run alongside it -- but dissatisfied users can revert to the older edition, IE9,  by uninstalling the IE10 update. Microsoft and many others have posted instructions for doing so.

Here's a coupe typical links, but Google will find many more.  It's a pretty easy process.

July 2012 Please note that there will NOT be a July Newsletter.  The next newsletter will be the Aug-Sept issue. 
May 2012 Recently two people have companied that they could not open the PDF's for the Newsletter and the ones for coming event flyers.    I had a number of other people try it, and I tried it on different computers with several different browsers.  I could not duplicate the problem.

See solution below from MH.  There appears to be an issue with the program on some computers that opens PDF's, and the assoicated browser.  If anyone else is having trouble please contact me.

The webmaster:  marcoman357@aol.com

 

Hi Eddie....Well, I think I found the problem.  The files came in on the lap top but would not come in on the big computer.  So, I deleted the Foxit programs and then it came in.  Then I reinstalled Foxit and it came in just fine.  So, no worry on your part...it was me, or rather our computer!

If there is a way that you can announce on the website that this change has been made and that the Feb Newsletter is incorrect regarding "Bus Stop", that would be great.  
 
Thank you,
