People are always complaining that there is nothing to do in Medford. Whether you believe it or not there are all kinds of things to do in Medford.

There are a handful of online event calendars covering Medford. The event calendar that really stands out from all of the other calendars is the one from IseeSouthernOregon.com. . This is quite possibly one of the most comprehensive event calendars and it covers all of Southern Oregon. Plus it has a really good Medford business listings

This event calendar is by far one of the most robust event calendars for the area. There are things happening every day of the week and you don't even know it. As long as it's legal it's listed in this event calendar.

This is what I really linke about this event calendar.

1. The categorical themes make it really easy to navigate to things that are of interest to you. It covers things from community events, theater and performances, live music , Medford karaoke, dancing, classes, comedy shows, and many more. Which is why I like this event calendar Medford Oregon

2. You can search it. Finding specific events in specifc cities is easy with the search function. This feature is really nice as it is a major time saver. But if you have the time and or just want to see what’s happening around the valley just start scrolling through it. You will find something that sounds interesting.

3. Becasue this is a community calendar everyone is allowed and encouraged to add an event. You do have to be a member in order to post an event, however, your membership is free.

This is far from being perfect. And the creators know this and are constantly tweaking it get it there. But there are a couple of features that would be really cool. It would be really cool if the creators saw this article, liked my ideas and then put them into the site.

1. I wish there was a way to subscribe to the calendar to get notifications of the types of events that I am interested in when they get posted. This would allow me to plan for these events. Getting a sitter is tough. But if I was notified way ahead of time it would be much easier. Now, this feature may be there but I did not see it if it is.

2. Receiving a text message or email would be really nice as events are added in my interest category. Now this will probably make me sad more than anything as I will rarely be able to go to any of them on short notice, but hey, you never now.

Unfortunately I doubt either one of these will ever be added. It could get really expensive and this is a free service. Still, it would be pretty cool.

Anyway, if you ever get bored in Medford Oregon and start complaining about there’s nothing to do. Don’t forget about this event calendar. Check it out. I guarantee you there is plenty happening around Southern Oregon, you just don’t know it.
