May 2014 Calendar
If your civic group, club, organization or business is hosting an event or activity of interest to our readers, e-mail details to Prime at primemontgomery@gmail.com. Information must be received by the 15th of the month prior to the month of the activity. If the activity occurs in the first week of the month, try to send the information two months in advance.
If you have a recurring event, send an e-mail each month. We know from experience dates and times can change. Calendar space for Prime’s print edition is limited, so all events cannot possibly be listed there. We will do our best to get these events included on-line.
