Summer, Service, and Smores…Reasons to Celebrate for June 21-27

This post written by Stephanie Fader, Marketing & PR Manager

Well, it’s officially summer! Monday, June 21 is Summer Solstice and the longest day of the year in the northern hemisphere. Kickoff summer with a trip to the beach, a relaxing day at the park, or a nice walk out in the bright sunshine!

Wednesday, June 23 is a great day to schedule a volunteer activity because it’s Public Service Day. Contact your town or nonprofit organizations in your area and find out ways you can help. Maybe even take on a summer-long project that might otherwise not have gotten done.

Wrap up the week on Saturday with a fun overnight right in your backyard to celebrate the Great American Backyard Campout! Pitch some tents, roast some marshmallows, and tell stories into the night. Who knows, maybe it will become an annual tradition!

The rest of the holidays this week include:

  • June 21: Summer Solstice
  • June 22: National Chocolate Eclair Day
  • June 23: Public Service Day
  • June 24: National Pralines Day
  • June 25: Take Your Dog to Work Day
  • June 26: Great American Backyard Campout
  • June 27: Sunglasses Day

Another important note is that July 4th is less than two weeks away (as is Canada Day for our friends to the north). Start planning your cookouts and patriotic celebrations today!

Have a great week!
