Labor Day


Labor Day is celebrated on the first Monday in September. It's a day dedicated to the social and economic achievements of American workers. The holiday tributes the working class contributions to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of our country.

Labor Day became an official national holiday in 1894. This holiday is usually celebrated with summer activities - swimming, camping, picnics, etc. Labor Day is the unofficial end of summer in the Northern part of the U.S.

Once a Month

It has been three weeks since this Information Site was launched. I've made new entries each Friday. I don't know if this has been useful to you or not. Nor do I know if anyone has been checking the Info Site periodically. I will be updating this site once a month beginning in September. In the meantime if you would take the survey on the site's page it will give me an idea as to whether I need to continue updating or not.



There is a survey to the left that can give us an idea to your thoughts. Or contact us at heatherpointe@gmail.com
