The idiom "in the event that" or "in the event of" introduces a possibility, and is usually followed by a suggested course of action. It is common to see signs which read "In case of fire, use the stairs". In Philip's letter, he suggests that someone from McGillicutty's should contact him in the case that they want to arrange a meeting.
This is incorrect. The term "event" is being used here to express an actual "ceremony" or "function". This is a usage of the term which is different than Philip's use of the term in his letter.
This is incorrect. The term "event" is being used here to describe a sporting event, such as one in the Olympic games. This is a usage of the term which is different than Philip's use of the term in his letter.
