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:
Ceremony is the day after a couple's anniversary. This is why dates vary.
But, this date is listed on my site due to the last qualified ceremony on June
20, 1751. So, for over 103 years, June 20th was considered Flitch of Bacon Day.
Then the ceremony was revived in 1854. But, the ceremony dates
varied with each couple. Some were held in August.The ceremony is not annual..
But, I'm keeping June 20 as the official Flitch of Bacon Day since it was the
traditional date for 103 years. So, you can celebrate on June 20 every year,
or celebrate every four years on the date set up by the town of Dunmow
in England where the ceremonies now take place.
PS: Here is a list
of the most recent winners of 2012 at The Dunmow Flitch Trials website

you want to apply for this prize, you can contact them at this site as
