Itemscontrol Scrollviewer not working with data - wpf

Question

I have searched all over, and even though everyone seems to be having this problem, I can't find the fix for my specific problem..
Here's the problem.
I want to make a custom Calendar Control. In order to do this I am filling an ItemsControl with TextBlocks, and then putting a scrollviewer around it.
But for some reason the scrollviewer scrollbar seems disabled, and it doesn't seem to recognize that it's filled with data.
Here's my Code
<Grid>
<ScrollViewer>
<ItemsControl ItemsSource="{Binding CalendarDates}" Height="75">
<ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate DataType="local:Calender">
<TextBlock Name="CalendarDate" FontSize="12" Text="{Binding}" TextAlignment="Right" VerticalAlignment="Top" Height="Auto"/>
</DataTemplate>
</ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
<ItemsControl.ItemsPanel>
<ItemsPanelTemplate>
<UniformGrid Rows="1" Columns="7"/>
</ItemsPanelTemplate>
</ItemsControl.ItemsPanel>
</ItemsControl>
</ScrollViewer>
</Grid>
And here's my MainWindow.xaml where I initialize it
<Grid>
<!--Row Definitins -->
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height = "Auto"/>
<RowDefinition Height = "*"/>
<RowDefinition Height = "Auto"/>
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="1*"/>
<ColumnDefinition Width="25*"/>
<ColumnDefinition Width="10*"/>
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<localControl:Calender Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="1"/>
</Grid>
The code fills the scrollviewer just fine, but like I said above the scrollbar seems disabled, and even when I hard code the size it still doesn't work!
Also I have already tried to set the SccrollViewer.VerticalScrollBar= Visible, and the height of the scrollviewer, as well as over a dozen of the "fixes" here on Stack Overflow, but none of them work in my case

Answer 1

I found the answer... The ItemsControl template itself does not allow for a scrollviewer.
I found the answer in this magazine on page 38.

We need to modify the ItemsControl template as follows:
<ItemsControl.Template>
<ControlTemplate TargetType= "ItemsControl">
<ScrollViewer>
<ItemsPresenter/>
</ScrollViewer>
</ControlTemplate>
</ItemsControl.Template>
