Contacting (or be contacted by) Bay Creek residents

There are three methods to connect with Bay Creek residents online. These each have a different focus, outlined below. You might also want to subscribe to the alder's email list; see their website below.

  1. The Bay Creek Calendar of Events (on Google Calendar): Learn about and participate in neighborhood meetings and events.

    Use your browser to view it on the Bay Creek website and/or use your Calendar app to view it on your smart phone.

    Here are instructions for subscribing to it for Google Calendar and Yahoo Calendar. (You can add it to other calendars, too; look in your calendar's documentation or search the web for it.) You can configure how you want to receive notifications (email, popup, etc.). You'll need the calendar's address (cut/paste this); it's: https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/a0t0g217k8fac3v3eef33lqr9g%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics

  2. The Bay Creek Email List (on groups.io): Read or post neighborhood news and announcements, or discuss neighborhood issues through the Bay Creek email list.

    You'll use email for this list, and here is how it works. After you subscribe to this list, you can send an email message to a single address that will be distributed to all other subscribers. Likewise, when someone else posts a message, you'll receive it via email.

    To subscribe to this, use the groups.io website. You'll receive a welcoming message back with instructions within a day (and usually within minutes) with a confirmation request to which you should respond. Check your SPAM folder if you don't see it. After your membership has been approved, you may post a message by sending email to baycreek@groups.io . If you ever wonder if an email you sent was received properly or want to look at past messages, you can simply check the archives.

    Please read the short document Guidelines for Civil Discourse before joining.

    By default, replies go to the entire list (300+ people). Please reply off-list to things which just concern one person; here are three methods:

    1. Log into your groups.io account and reply using their website "Private" function. Further instructions and a short video are here.
    2. Use the "Reply To Sender" in the footer of the message. Note that the content of the message will not be included.
    3. It's usually not hard to parse out their address in the "From" line. Sometimes it's accurate and you can simply copy/paste. Other times it'll look like "username=gmail.com@groups.io"; simply delete everything after the '@' and replace the '=' with '@', so "username@gmail.com".

    People have reported that they don't want anyone selling products or services, so please refrain from that.

    You may want to create an email filter for the list so email doesn't go directly to your inbox... occasionally there is a lot of conversation. Here's how to do it for Gmail and Yahoo mail. All emails are addressed to baycreek@groups.io and all subjects contain '[Bay Creek]', so you can filter on one or both of those. Alternatively, you can choose a digest mode using the groups.io website.

    You can "mute" a topic to stop receiving emails about a particular topic. Simply click the "Mute This Topic" button or link near the bottom of the message. If you don't have a groups.io account, you'll need to first create one associated with your email address. The site should walk you thru this when you attempt to mute a topic.

  3. The Bay Creek Facebook Groups: Positive communication, neighborly connections, and information for those living in the Bay Creek Neighborhood.

    You'll use Facebook for these; sign up if you don't have an account. Once you have an account, join one or both of the following, depending on your interest. Please read the short document Guidelines for Civil Discourse before joining. Make sure to answer the membership questions!

    Ask to join by clicking "Join Group". When someone approves your request you can read what others have posted, or post your own messages/pictures and other neighbors will see them.

    People have reported that they don't want anyone selling products or services, so please refrain from that.
