1. Create the headline, "* Hacking History 2017 class {{{n}}}", maybe in a
   new file, classes.org.

2. Give it a date with "C-c .".  AFAIK you have to manually put the cursor
   on the new line.

3. M-x org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift and give
   (1- total-number-of-classes) plus a time shift, typically +1w-

4. Export to ICS, maybe as part of your publishing routine if ox-hugo uses
   ox-publish.

You should be able to create something like this,

* Hacking History 2017 class {{{n}}}
<2017-09-08 Fri 10:00-12:00>
* Hacking History 2017 class {{{n}}}
<2017-09-15 Fri 10:00-12:00>
* Hacking History 2017 class {{{n}}}
<2017-09-22 Fri 10:00-12:00>


I use org-caldav to synchronize with owncloud for what it is worth.

Hope it helps,
Rasmus
