Additional Event Notes

• Events have to be manually removed once an event date has passed.
• Events on the events page will display in the order that they were added to the website and not by the event date. So you may have to move around the published dates of your events to have it appear in the correct order.
• Up to 8 events will display on one page. After 8 events, you will see a next/back button.
• Adding this page to your website is optional.
