1-Oct 2015 Clifton’s Cafeteria Brookdale reopens
12-Nov 2016 Pacific Seas inside Clifton’s Cafeteria Brookdale opens

Haven’t found the exact date yet for when the original Clifton’s was remodeled and reopened as Pacific Seas in 1939.

And a few more suggestions:

15-Jul 1958 “Cinerama South Seas Adventure” premieres
1-Oct 1971 Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort opens

Choosing 1973 for next year’s calendar is genius; it gives us another decade’s worth of dates to celebrate.

If it’s not too late (or too labor intensive), may I make some formatting suggestions? You may have already thought of them. For birthdays, openings, etc., could you put the year at the beginning of the entry instead of the end (for example, “1914 Thor Heyerdahl born”)? And maybe you could color code entries of the same type (for example, treat days like National Rum Day as holidays like Columbus Day and highlight in red text; entries about people in green text; entries about places in blue text; etc.)? I think doing both could make reading the information a bit easier.
