Frequently Asked Questions

Website FAQ's

1. Can I add submit content for a page?

Yes. Please submit your content & request/suggestion to Daren Overstreet. He can then forward it for posting to the site webmaster at webmaster@tacomaregion.com. If the postings will become routine, then other arrangements can be made as well (such as FTP access).

2. Why is my event not listed?

An effort is made to list as many events as possible. Managing multiple areas can be tasking at times, though, and things can be missed. If an event needs to be added/edited/deleted, please drop an email to the website team at webmaster@tacomaregion.com

3. How often is the tacomaregion.com site updated?

Our goal is to have the site audited & updated multiple times per week. We would like to make it into a reliable means of information and communication. You can also tell the last time the main page was updated by observing the footer (page last updated on...). If an item or area needs attention, please let us know!
