You can add it as an attachment but I would make it a google sheet & put it in a google drive.
That way you can add people who can edit the sheet to the file itself & it'll always be the latest version & everyone on the edit permissions list will get an email alert when it has been updated. 
Then you can simply post a link to it in the desired thread

OK, so I would create my sheet in google and then add the shared link to one of my custom pages?

Yes, when you publish the page via Google Sheets, you have two options: Link or Embed.
Use the Embed code for HTML that can be used on a Custom Page.

If you want to embed a Google Sheet on a forum post, select Link. Then copy that link and use the instructions here:

You can actually create a spreadsheet in excel as usual & save it to your google drive.
There, when you right click it, you get the option to open as a google sheet.
In that document you can set all the sharing/ editing permissions you want & then you can post the link to the sheet where you need to.
That way only people with the permissions you've set can tinker with it & you'll always have an up to date document that can be edited by multiple people at the same time

OK, I was able to get the embed link and put it in a custom page. When I use the provided embed link, the calendar shows linke a small box. How do I change the display settings?

OK, I was able to make changed to the embed code to get the correct height and width. I still can't edit from my custom page so I added the link to the shared document. How do I make the text so that someone can click the text and be directed to the actual google sheet?

Put bb code tags round it.
eg
[url=the link to the spreadsheet]Whatever you want the text to read[/url]
