Meeting Sign-Up

Meeting sign-up is managed via Google Forms. We have customized the field names and action to create our own form. Responses are collected in a Google Sheet.

When a meeting registration closes, we create a new tab and keep the sign-up list from previous meetings in their respective tabs.
