[support] Building a 5.7 site for Jazz Club

[Brett Evanson]

the default calendar is a view, so you can probably change the title
by going to /admin/build/views and editing the view through there. at
least the title.

for the menu, you can do it through cck (create a menuitem content
type, etc) or you can have it be one page with something like tinymce
(although i like fckeditor better).

not sure about the image error.

the emails sounds like a newsletter. use the simple news module, have
the patrons sign up for the newsletter, create a newsletter node every
week and send it out. lots of details there, but start with
simplenews.
