Answer 1

Go to "File" and create a new calendar, name it "Events" or whatever you like and pick a color.  Then, go to the date you want the anniversary on and create an all-day event naming it however you like.  Under repeat, choose to have it repeat every year and select never for when it should end.  You will now have a calendar of anniversaries and other events.  Just make sure to select repeat every year and never end on each item you want in that calendar.
