[GLLUG] Website builder tool again

[Chris Fritz]

Have you looked into Eventbrite? As long as the event is free,
Eventbrite is free - and it's pretty easy to use. All she'd have to do
is link to the event page. Another option (if webs supports it) is to
embed a contact form that she could use for signup. She'd have to
compile all the submissions into a list herself probably, but it might
be the easiest for the people signing up.

What my friend really needs, all that she needs, is a way to publish an event (golf outings) on her group's website and have an easy way for people to sign up.  Then she needs to be able to grab a list and give it to the golf pro shop folks who will use it to generate tee times, etc.
