You should! Everyone should! (time permitting of course) Holidays almost never show up in an RP so it's fun to write for characters waist deep in the festivities from time to time.
Only took us a year to get to our second battle. And it's still mid-summer. We haven't hit the feast yet (which is in late august). Seems like we'll get to that at around 2019. Yaaaaay~
Well we did have Caliban's characters in the posts (as a part of the other squad), so we'll probably be waiting for him (her?) to respond. Everyone else is just milling about, I suppose.
