Some calendar choices:

1) A PDF calendar. Manual process for them to create a new calendar each month as well as insert data. Supports links and is large and easy to read.

2) More of an events listing than a regular square calendar from the site Jay found last week:
http://www.centenary-ws.org/centenary-calendar.asp

3) An interactive Google calendar. I posted a SCOA sample on edtechs.net (public testing space) It is set so all public can view and only the password holder can edit. SCOA would edit from within the website without the need for programming or manual calendar creation.

4) CSS Calendar
Cascading style sheet controls with manual inputs.
