Event Tags

Event Tags are essential for organizing events based on common purposes, such as campus, department, or event type. They allow for efficient filtering on both the Admin Calendar and Church Center Calendar pages. Tags should be assigned to every event to facilitate easy navigation and organization.

Editing Tags: Tags can be modified at Planning Center Online Tags.

Event Event must have a tag from: Department, Event Type, and Location to ensure comprehensive categorization.
Tags with a * indicate the tag can be used to filter events on ChurchCenter. 

Events highlighted in yellow are seemingly redundant and should be considered for removal.
