That's right! In just a few days, we will be celebrating the Labor Day weekend. How much do you know about the holiday?
Here's a little info:
Labor Day is observed on the first Monday in September, and it pays tribute to the contributions and achievements of American workers. It was created by the labor movement in the late 19th century and became a federal holiday in 1894. Labor Day also symbolizes the end of summer for many Americans, and is celebrated with parties, parades and athletic events.
Labor Day celebrates the American worker, regardless of the type of work he or she does. As students, your job right now is just that -- being a student. As an adult, I think it is pretty neat that our country celebrates the hard work of its citizens in such a holiday. To many, just being off from work and being able to spend time with family or friends is a celebration itself.
So, as we celebrate the ending of our first month of school, basically, how do you plan to spend your Labor Day? A quick trip to the mountains or the beach? Sleeping in or catching up on NetFlix? Shopping til you drop or catching a movie? Hamburgers and hotdogs at a cookout?
