find events on a particular date

[+ras_oscar 91]

I would like to find an event to attend on a particular date, within 150 miles of a given coordinate. Is there a way to do this on the Groundspeak site? I can filter and show only events on the map, but then I must scroll and click on each one to find the date. (some of which are in the past)

Use a PQ. Sort by cache type (event) and date.

You can also check the full list at "List newest in (your state) " from your profile page.

At least they would be by date, you would then have to check for location, is all.

 

This would probably be the easiest method.

For an event, the date of the event is equal to it's Placed Date. Just create a PQ, set it for Events only, set your center point and distance and set both "Placed During" to the date that you are interested in. I just tested it on a local event that is scheduled for next Wednesday.

As suggested above, setting up a Pocket Query is the easiest way. You can save your settings and preview the query whenever you're in the mood to check out nearby events - just edit the date field. You don't need to run the query, just preview the results.

 

If you don't feel like setting up a PQ, check out the Event Calendar.
