Creating a Facebook Group

We're trying to get together a 30 year high-school reunion for next year. Somehow I volunteered to set up a website to facilitate this undertaking. I figured it would be easy enough to set up a web page on Facebook. But then when I tried to do it, of course, the devil is in the details. I'm not clear whether I could create a "Page" or a "Group" within Facebook. This website seems to indicate that, for our purposes, it looks like setting up a "Group" will be the way to go.

So, I dunno what to do really. Our thought is that we want to have a 20 year reunion for the class reunion next year for the Class of 1984, but then, someone did the math and pointed out that it would actually be our 30 year reunion, so, obviously we didn't do so well at math, right? I blame Alicia Reynolds.

Furthermore, some other people thought it would be a good idea to include the scholars from the Class of '83, by all accounts, the worst class ever to be excreted from Monticello High.

So, without getting too specific, I decided that I'd set up a web page for Monticello High School Red Devils, and and just make it an open forum, essentially. I'm not clear if there is one already or not.

So, it seems like someone already set up a Monticello High School Red Devils "page" on Facebook, so I'll go ahead and set up a Monticello High School Red Devils "group", because obviously the other people are complete idiots and skipped the research I did to figure out if it would make more sense to set up a "Group" or a "Page".

To create a Group from within Facebook, click on "Home" (top/right) , "Create Group" (top/left).

Enter the Group Name, type in the names of members you want to add to the group, select a Privacy Option (I chose Open). If you're uncertain, click on "Learn more about groups privacy".

Click the "Create" button.
