+# TIMEPERIODS.CFG - SAMPLE TIMEPERIOD DEFINITIONS
+#
+#
+# NOTES: This config file provides you with some example timeperiod definitions
+#        that you can reference in host, service, contact, and dependency
+#        definitions.
+#
+#        You don't need to keep timeperiods in a separate file from your other
+#        object definitions.  This has been done just to make things easier to
+#        understand.
