    The description for all events is on a Google doc, as the description box's character limit is too small for the majority of the paragraphs. Descriptions can be found here. I recommend that you duplicate this tab, as the link will open inside this tab rather than creating a new one, and switching from "Timeline" to "List" mode. There's a switch at the bottom. I apologize for the trouble and enjoy!
