InDesign nested styles question

    Hi,

    New to this forum and have a question, maybe someone can help me.

    I'm laying out a spread in indesign that is an events listing. Each entry is as follows:
    DATE
    EVENT
    Details
    Details (Sometimes 2 lines, sometimes 3)
    

    I'm formatting these listings using paragraph styles which allows me to easily format the text which comes in as text each time.

    What I can't figure out is how I can account for headings in my stylesheet, which appear throughout the text for each month. (Each month has varying numbers of entries)

    i.e.:
    [B][U]JANUARY[/U][/B]
    Date
    Event
    Details
    
    Date
    Event
    Details
    
    Date
    Event
    Details
    
    [U][B]FEBRUARY[/B][/U]
    Date
    Event
    Details
    
    Date
    Event
    Details
    
    [B][U]MARCH[/U][/B]
    
    [I]etc..........[/I]
    
    

    Any ideas?
