		 var endEvent = "END:VEVENT";

		 var eventDesc = "SUMMARY:" + this.$('.input-event-description').val() + "\r\n";

		 var eventStart = "DTSTART:" + this.$('.input-event-fromdate').val() + "\r\n";

		 var eventEnd = "DTEND:" + this.$('.input-event-todate').val() + "\r\n";

		 var generatedEvent = beginEvent + eventDesc + eventStart + eventEnd + endEvent;

		 return generatedEvent;
