Looking for something to do with the family this month?
June is known for Father’s Day, National Garden Week, National Play Catch Week and Great Outdoors Month, and that’s where most folks are clamoring to be in June—outdoors, especially for gardening and barbecues with dads, grads, family…and family reunions.
June is also the Army’s Birthday, Juneteenth (recognizing the abolition of slavery), Sauntering Day (meaning: slow down and take it easy), Caribbean-American Heritage Month, Let It Go Day, Forgiveness Day, Say Something Nice Day, Hug Holiday, Men’s Health Week, Beautiful In Your Skin Month, Loving Day, Random Acts of Light Day, Smile Power Day, Make Life Beautiful Day, Community Health Improvement Week, National Nursing Assistants Week, National Pen Pal Day, National SAFE Day (Gun Safety Awareness), World Environment Day, World Oceans Day, and Nature Photography Day, along with so much more.
Father’s Day may be June 21st, but most fathers are dads 24/7, 365 days a year. Dads get ties, tools, and cologne on their special day, but we know that being present with dad is worth so much more than the presents. So take a look at all the different things that can be celebrated this month, and make a plan to spend family time with dad making new memories.
...celebrating 31 years!
