Office of Public Events (Events Calendar 2021-2022)

[Strawberry]

The Office of Public Events is likely one of the biggest offices in the entire Governor's Office building. It is a chaotic mess of interns, planners, supplies, and no small amount of alcohol (Rhydin loves a good drinking holiday after all). It is where the magic happens when it comes to Governor sponsored public events and the holiest of holy grails is the event calendar. A massive thing, it took up a good chunk of a wall and magically flipped through months on request. Above it, LED countdowns til the next event, the next next event, and even the following event ticked down to remind the flustered staff just how much they needed to do and how little time they had to do it.

((OOC Note: This is by no means a comprehensive list of things to do, it encompasses *most* things that the Governor's Office may have an interest in. I do not own these events and other than the Governor's Ball, I totally welcome anyone who wants to take up the mantle for any event (on this list or otherwise) for the community. I'm going to try my best to at least have a playable or board thing for most of these above, but if anyone has an interest in taking one or more of these on, please feel free! You don't even have to ask, just have fun with it!))
