Sagamore calendar implementation
These Google Calendars are hosted through the Sagamore Hills PTA Google account, owned by admin@sagamorehillspta.org, editable by the sagamorehillspta@sagamorehillspta.org group, and publicly viewable.
Instructions for simply viewing/subscribing (what most folks want) are on the Sagamore calendar page.
List of Calendars
Separate calendars are used to allow end-user filtering.
