Labor Day

"...the nation pays tribute on Labor Day to the creator of so much of the nation's strength, freedom and leadership--the american worker."


We celebrate Labor Day every year by just taking a free three day weekend, but why don't we take a moment to think about what Labor Day is really about.  The first Labor Day was celebrated on Tuesday September 5th 1882 and was observed to celebrate the social and economic achievements of american workers. Take a moment to thank your doctors, your local cashiers, your co workers and most importantly yourself! Get the kids involved by asking them what they want to be when they grow up and making a fun activity out of it.
So, take a break and relax, you work hard! Let us know what you do to relax every Labor Day!
