Open Day performance dashboard

Compare one first-full-weekend open day against the matching open day in the prior month and the same month last year. Admissions are split by admission type, sales are rolled up by Square category, and daily weather is pulled in so we can see whether rain, heat, or wind lines up with the trading result.
