What is an event recording?

Question

I have a leak handle in a big old program. Using sysinternals handle.exe, I realized that the type of descriptor that flows is the "Event" descriptor. But I'm not sure what parts of my code I should look at. Is there a list of functions that return event descriptors?

EDIT: There are no instances of CreateEvent, CreateEventEx, or OpenEvent in the program.
