Every season there will be certain events that take place. Some events are festivals that you can attend in the village. Others are on random days like storms. You can learn about when events happen by viewing the posts on the Bulliten Board in the Town Square. You can also look in your system notebook by pressing SELECT once to activate it, and then SELECT again to bring up the "Schedule" option. Going to festivals will raise your happiness and raise your friendships with the villagers. Some festivals require you to go to them during the day, and others take place at night. Festivals take place in the Town Square. Sometimes you will also get a photograph of you at the festival that appears in Mary's Photo picture book. You can print out your pictures using your Gameboy Printer if you have one. Weather storms are listed on the Schedule to happen on certain days but often times they don't. Hurricanes and Snow Storms will happen around the date that they are scheduled for. If there is a Snow Storm scheduled for the 20th of Winter, the storm could actually take place on the 19th, 20th, or 21st. You can only find out when it is specifically going to happen by watching the weather report on your tv inside your house. Storms will also damage your crops and grass, so keep that in mind when you're planting. If you are replanting grass and notice that a storm is scheduled to occur within a few days, wait until the storm has passed before replanting. When a storm occurs you are also trapped inside all day, which means you can't take care of your animals. The next day after the storm your animals won't produce anything and they'll be grumpy for three days. Just take care of them like you normally would and they should be fine three days later. Sometimes the chickens won't get any better no matter how nice you are to them. In that case it's best to just sell the chicken and hatch a new one. If you want to be sneaky, you can avoid storms. If you notice that the weather on tv for the next day calls for a typhoon or a snow storm, and it's not a sunday, you can go to the village and talk to Ken. You ask Ken to do an estimate for you the next day. When you wake up in the morning instead of a storm you get Ken giving you a building estimate. If at some point you actually have Ken building something for you, the schedule in your system notebook will let you know what day his project is going to be done. Your birthday will also appear on the schedule. Listed below is a list of what is scheduled to occur each season. 1st - New Years Festival - Doesn't occur the first year, but every year after. 15th - Cherry Cup - A horse race you can participate in.
