Damon,

See this  https://tiddlywiki.com/#DateFormat
[UTC] Time-shift the represented date to UTC. Must be at very start of 
format string
So Try
<$view field="customdate" format="date" template="[UTC]MMM DD, YYYY"/>

Also you may want to consider using 

   - https://github.com/kixam/TW5-datepicker
   - https://github.com/kixam/TW5-visjsTimeline
   - http://bjtools.tiddlyspot.com#ExtendableCalendar

Regards
Tony
