Consistent Timezone in popup window - jquery-plugins

Question

Using FullCalendar for my Google Calendar, I would like to ignore the local timezone completely and always render the time in America/Chicago time.
I'm actually not worried about the calendar itself - it works fine. I'm trying to make the popup window display properly. As long as I'm logged into a Google account, the time displays "local" time. But many of my visitors will not have Google accounts and when they open the popup window, it always displays GMT time.
How do I tell the popup window to always display "America/Chicago"? Is this a FullCalendar issue or a Google issue?

According to the documentation of fullcalendar at:
http://fullcalendar.io/docs/timezone/timezone/
You have the method/parameter timezone which allows you to set it with the parameter 'America/Chicago'
This is taken from their example:
function renderCalendar() {
$('#calendar').fullCalendar({
header: {
left: 'prev,next today',
center: 'title',
right: 'month,agendaWeek,agendaDay'
},
defaultDate: '2015-02-12',
timezone: currentTimezone, //Here you can set timezone to 'America/Chicago'
editable: true,
eventLimit: true, // allow "more" link when too many events
events: {
url: 'php/get-events.php',
error: function() {
$('#script-warning').show();
}
},
loading: function(bool) {
$('#loading').toggle(bool);
},
eventRender: function(event, el) {
// render the timezone offset below the event title
if (event.start.hasZone()) {
el.find('.fc-title').after(
$('<div class="tzo"/>').text(event.start.format('Z'))
);
}
}
});
}
And accordingly the same parameter is available for the google calendar example:
