Why Did I Download/Buy This?

I needed a package that allowed me to put holidays into my date book. Since I didn’t necessarily want all of the “standard” holidays, and needed to add the “government” holidays in, as well as some custom holidays of my own, I wanted a package that was easy to use, customizable, and free.

How Do I Use This?

Holidays on the calendar allow me to see what is coming up. For governmental holidays, I can know that my client will probably be closed, and plan accordingly. Also, having my religious holidays put into the calendar for me allows me to make plans for the holiday well before it occurs.
