You're welcome for the invite. I hope we get to meet at another HOBN Yaletown meeting.
When it comes to inviting people to your event you actually have to create a new "Event" here on the HOBN site by clicking on the "Events" tab on the top of this page and then entering the details of your event there. Once you have done this there should be a blue "Invite" button on the right hand side of your event page, where you can choose which group(s) of people you'd like to invite. Hope this helps - let me know if you have any other questions. Cheers!2 months ago -
