Is there a way to exclude certain event categories from showing up in the Events list?

The UUA theme really simplifies creating recurring events such as committee meetings. However the committee meetings then clog up the Upcoming Events list on the Home page widget. Is there a way to exclude a category from showing up in the widget? I would like them all to appear in the Events page, but prefer to show non-business activities on the Home page. I suppose I could create a new category called "show on home page" or something like that, but wondering if there's a better way. Thanks, John
