If you want to remind your group members about an upcoming event, send them a reminder email! Set up automated reminder emails or by sending emails with a message manually.
Important
Emails will be sent to the primary email address, except in the case of Account settings. Accounts sends an email to every email address listed on an Organization Administrator or Billing Manager's profile.
If you want group events to always receive a reminder email, set it up in the Group Settings. Once it's set up, the default will apply to newly created events.
Note
The default reminders that you set will only apply to new events. You will need to manually edit an event to set reminders for any pre-existing events.
Toggle the Send reminder emails button to green, and then choose the number of days before the event that you want the reminder to be sent out.
You can change the event reminder for a specific event.
