Is there a way to add Ash Wednesday to the calendar as a recurring event?

I have searched Google for some time and can not see how to add just that
event.

Thanks
Bob

Problem is it changes every year......
 
In Outlook 2007 this is easy to do by adding "Christian Religious Holidays"
to your calendar. You can do this by choosing Tools + Options + Calendar
Options + Add options and then choose Christian Religious Holidays.

I need to check to see if this applies for Outlook 2003 but I suspect that
it is the same (will verify when I can get to an Outlook 2003 config)

2003 only goes to 2007, but you can add holidays out to 2012

all versions have the Christian holidays - it's just the matter of the years
supported, but the holiday update linked above will work with all versions.
