There are many aggregation sites listed on https://wrdashboard.ca, but here are a few that are worth singling out:

If you are passionate about a series of events where you live, you should totally set up a calendar and publish feeds for it. The biggest bottleneck is people: it takes a few hours a week to maintain a calendar. However, once a calendar exists many others can benefit.

If you would like some help figuring out how to use these scripts, get in touch.
If you have used these scripts (or other tools) to make event listings with consumable feeds, let us know! We are expecially interested in other listings for Waterloo Region.
