About the Announcements category

(Replace this first paragraph with a brief description of your new category. This guidance will appear in the category selection area, so try to keep it below 200 characters.)

Use the following paragraphs for a longer description, or to establish category guidelines or rules:

• Why should people use this category? What is it for?
• How exactly is this different than the other categories we already have?
• What should topics in this category generally contain?
• Do we need this category? Can we merge with another category, or subcategory?

Is it for staff to use to make announcements of various things?

I can see if for notice of technical changes to the board, any technical issues, policy changes.

I think we just sticky things about gymnastics events.

I split the “About The Site + Feedback” category into two separate categories.

Only staff can create a new thread in the “Announcement” category. Basically the category will notify all the members each time a new thread is created in it… so it is good for announcements.

Gymnastics events / competitions should just go in the category that is related to it.
