Your first visit

There is no account to make

No password, no sign-up form. The first time you open the board, your browser quietly makes up a family id, and that’s you. Anything you tap is remembered against it.

To other families you show up as an unnamed family until you decide otherwise: counted in the numbers, never named. Adding a name is optional and lives on the You page.

The board, in one paragraph

Every activity sits under one of three tabs. Happening, where the board opens, is booked and going ahead. Committing means enough families said yes, so now places are being paid for. Ideas is where everything begins: somebody asking “would anyone come to this?”. It runs when enough of us are in.

Nothing drifts: an idea gets about 7 days to find its people, then about 7 more for places to be paid. If the numbers don’t come, it quietly drops off and nobody has spent anything.

The one tap that matters

On anything in the Ideas tab there’s a button that says “I’d come”. Tapping it costs nothing and promises nothing beyond honesty: it tells whoever offered to run the thing whether it’s worth booking. You can take your name off any time before places are paid for.

Free things with no minimum say “I’m coming” instead, and mean exactly that.

Where everything lives

Board is the funnel above: everything being planned.

Calendar is everything with a date on it, and you can subscribe once to see club events on your own phone’s calendar.

Short notice is today-and-tomorrow: park this afternoon, beach tomorrow. No minimum, nothing to book, its own page so it never gets buried.

You is your family: your name if you want one shown, your kids’ ages if you want those shown, alerts, and devices.

How it works is the story version of all this, and these guides are the reference.

Worth doing in your first five minutes

None of it is required, but: take the one-minute tour if you haven’t, look through the Ideas tab and tap the ones you’d actually come to, and decide on the You page whether other families see your name or just your number.

That’s it. Everything else on the board explains itself when you get to it.
