your birthday today?

Search results take a few seconds and open in a  new window. May need to allow Pop Ups to see results.  

 

All our holidays are validated with sponsors or organizations; or, we  validate the source or origin for an observance to prove it's not made up.
We do not have holidays for every single day of the year. Sites that do, IMHO are making some of their days up.  Beware!
Also, some observances that are validated through website links, can't be updated until their websites update their 2010 information.

Visiting us is free! Our Holiday information is free.   We have always paid all costs and remained ad free as well.

Full Moon on  the 25th  is called "Buck Moon" by Native Americans of New England and the Great Lakes because at this time of the year, the new antlers of the buck deer begin to appear. It's also called the "Thunder Moon" due to all the summer storms.

There will also be a solar eclipse on July 11.  This will be a total eclipse visible in southern South America and the South Pacific.
