National Good Neighbor Day |
Posted: September 19, 2013 |
Do you have a good neighbor? Celebrate... National Good Neighbor Day When : Always September 28, previously the Fourth Sunday in September Ah, Good Neighbor Day. It's definitely a good thing. Being good neighbors is an important part of the social fiber that makes this country so great. Therefore, it seems only fitting that one day a year honors good neighbors. This day of recognition is not to be confused with other forms of "Good Neighbor Days". Stores proclaim "Good Neighbor Days" to promote sales, a wide range of organizations announce "Good Neighbor Days" to promote their cause, and local municipalities and governments proclaim "Good Neighbor Days" for a variety of reasons. Rather, this day is to truly recognize and appreciate your good neighbor. Hopefully, one of those good neighbors is you! History: In 2003, the U.S. Senate passed a resolution, sponsored by Montana Senator Max Baucus, making September 28, National Good Neighbor Day. Previously, this day was celebrated on the fourth Sunday of September. Note: Rhode Island initiated a movement to pass a National Neighbor Day on the Sunday before Memorial Day. Action never materialized into a formal national proclamation or law. Send a special gift. Like Napa Valley Charm: http://shop.o2o.com/item.php?LBB-bTz159g9R-7383
