    Suggest an event

    For festivals, fairs, harvests, holiday walks and history days in the St. Joseph River valley. We check each one with its organisers before it goes on the calendar.

    Your email app opens with everything filled in, to research@projectscroll.com. Nothing is sent from this page.

    Dates come from each event’s own website or its organisers. Where next year’s dates are not announced yet, the calendar shows the day the event usually falls, as a ring and marked “expected date”; the “dates to come” names under a month are events held that month whose dates are not yet set. Check before you go: dates and times change. “This day in the valley” is from the county histories, each with its book and page; the full moons and the first days of the seasons are for Eastern time. “Add to my day” puts an event on your day plan on the valley map; your filters and your day stay on this device. “Subscribe” adds every festival to your own calendar app and keeps it up to date; “Add to my calendar” on an event adds just that one, with a reminder the day before. Each event says when its dates were last checked: if something has changed, the “Report a change” link under it writes to us, and organisers can . The moon names are the Potawatomi moons as taught in the Forest County Potawatomi language lessons today.
