iii. Select Calendar settings.

iv. Click on Share this calendar tab.

v. Click Make this calendar public.

vi. Click the save button.

2. E-mail The Journal the Google calendar address. Here’s an example of what it will look like:

https://www.google.com/calendar/ical/EMAILADDRESSGOESHERE/public/basic.ics

Here’s how to get this address: 

i. Go to Google Calendar.

ii. Click the downward pointing arrow beside the calendar you want to share.

iii. Select Calendar settings.
