How Holidays Begin and How
to Start One.
Rules for Use:
All our holidays are validated with sponsors, organizations, proclamations,
history; or, we validate the source or origin for an observance to prove
it's not made up.
I do not respect other holiday sites that steal my
information and put it on a site wanting to make money from ads or charging
to even validate a holiday.
I'll add holidays for free if they are coming
from a valid source and not obscene, hateful, etc..
My holidays as a
daily, weekly, monthly and total composite are copyrighted via this domain and
are not to be taken and put on another website, blog, or made into a downloadable
application, etc.. Doing so is a violation of the DMCA.
I invite you to use my holiday pages for personal
use, off-line use for clubs, newsletters, homemade calendars, etc..

(Note: Some also say it's always the 3rd Saturday. I've got this listed on June
20 also with a more detailed explanation.
But, July 19, 1854 was when the
ceremony was revived after not having it for 103 years. This is why some
say it's on this date. However it's really officially celebrated every Leap
Year. Next one will be on July 9, 2016. See the
Flitch of Dunmow site. )

Full Moon on the 21st 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.
July 28-29 - Delta Aquarids Meteor Shower
that's an average meteor shower which is suppose to produce about 20 meteors
per hour when peaking. It runs from July 12 to August 23. But
it's peak is on July 28 and morning of 29th. The moon might block out some
of the lighter meteors but you might be able to see some good ones at a dark
location.
