All
our holidays are validated with sponsors, organizations,
proclamations, history;
All of
my holiday and observances lists as a whole group are not
"fair use" information. (Individual holidays are owned
by their sponsors.)
You're invited to share these holidays on
Twitter, etc. Just tell folks where you got them. |
