 * I am struggling with the repetition pattern logic and need some assistance. For
   Holidays that repeat annual on a day, for example Labor Day on the First Monday
   of September, none of the options we have selected result in the event repeating
   on the First Monday in September. For Holidays that repeat on a day or date, 
   which is the combination of “Repeats”, “Every” and “Recur option”? I can’t seem
   to figure it out.

 * There isn’t a repetition pattern that will support an event like that. The recurring
   patterns for repeating according to the day of the week only supports monthly
   events, and not annual.
 * For an event like what you’ve described, the easiest entry would be to use the‘
   Add another occurrence’ button and write in the dates for the holiday for each
   occurrence.

 * Hi, Joe. Thank you for your response. The plugin is quite good, but creation 
   of recurring events is rather fundamental to the functionality of a calendar.
   I hope that additional options for recurring events based on day of the week 
   will be considered for a future enhancement. Regards.
