Club meeting schedule template

Most clubs already keep their schedule in a spreadsheet. The hard part is getting it onto members' calendars. Someone moves a meeting, posts it in the group chat, and half the club scrolls past it. This template turns that spreadsheet into a calendar feed members subscribe to once.

You keep planning in the sheet the way you do now. When a meeting moves or a social gets added, the change shows up on every subscribed member's phone. You don't have to send an announcement email or ask whether everyone saw the message.

  • One row per meeting. There's no recurrence rule, so “first Thursday of every month” has to be typed as dates. A year of monthly meetings is only 12 rows, and drag-fill in Sheets does most of the typing.
  • Keep the header row. Columns are recognized by their headers, so if you rename one later you get flagged instead of the feed quietly breaking.
  • A blank Time makes an all-day event, which fits volunteer days and book swaps where people drop in.
  • Give every meeting a real title like “October meeting — The Overstory”, not just “Meeting”. That's what members see on their phone's day view.

Questions

Do members need to install an app or create an account?
No. You share one subscribe link. Members tap it once, pick Apple Calendar, Google Calendar, or Outlook, and they're done. Subscribing never requires an account.
We meet the first Thursday of every month. Can I just write that once?
No, there's no recurrence support, so each meeting is its own row. Typing 12 dated rows covers the year, and moving or cancelling any single meeting is just an edit to that row.
What happens when we move a meeting to a different night?
Edit the row. The event updates in place on every subscribed calendar, so there's no duplicate. Feeds refresh hourly on the free plan. Apple and Outlook pick the change up soon after; Google Calendar refetches on its own schedule and can take up to 24 hours.
Where does the schedule have to live?
A Google Sheet share link, a CSV file at a URL, or a table pasted straight in. Whatever you already use stays the source of truth. The feed just reads it.
