NEW YORK—As an eyecare professional, you may pride yourself in knowing when it’s Save Your Vision Month (March) or when its National Glaucoma Awareness Month (January), but do know when other cultural events and milestones are happening as well? For example, did you know that this year is the 100th anniversary of the National Parks? The 200th anniversary of the state of Indiana?

The legendary, iconic Chases’ Calendar of Events offers a wealth of such information. Established in 1957, it is now a part of McGraw-Hill Education. And, as Amazon.com points out, “If you're looking to tie a promotional event to a special month, travel to a music festival halfway around the world, blog about a historical milestone or do a celebrity birthday round-up on your radio show or Twitterfeed, Chase's Calendar of Events is the one resource that has it all.”

Chase's Calendar of Events is the most comprehensive and authoritative reference available on special events, holidays, federal and state observances, historic anniversaries and more. Each spring, thousands of new entries are submitted to join the more than 12,000 items that make up each year's book. Each event listing (where applicable) contains contact and mailing information. There is no charge to be listed in Chase's. Each new edition appears in late September preceding the year in question.
