The Metro Sports Report is happy to announce that we have added a Recreation Calendar to the MSR website for groups, organizations and individuals that would like to publicly list their events and tryouts.
We will post a short story about each event or tryout in our "Today's Lineup" section on the home page. In addition, we will include each event or tryout on a permanent list that can be found by clicking on the "Rec Calendar" tab at the top of the main home page.
We are charging $25 per entry, which we think is a reasonable and fair price for this service. In most cases, an organization or individual will see a significant return on their $25 investment in terms of additional registrations.
The Recreation Calendar is available for all youth and adult programs. However, it is not intended for organizations such as the YMCA or Cedar Rapids Recreation Department.
Over the years, I have been approached as president of the Metro Sports Report by people who wanted us to post stories about their tryouts for youth sports teams or to write a notice about one of their tournaments. We really did not have a mechanism for handling that material, but now we do. The $25 fee will cover our time and effort.
