Grandparents' Day
Grandparents' Day will be celebrated on 13th September 2009.
Grandparents are so important to kids. They have patience and time when parents are busy. They have stories to tell and interesting games to play. They are also good for treats and spoiling, which we all need from time to time!
History
In 1970, a West Virginia housewife, Marian Lucille Herndon McQuade, initiated a campaign to set aside a special day just for Grandparents.
Through concerted efforts on the part of civic, business, church, and political leaders, this campaign expanded statewide.
The first Grandparents Day was proclaimed in 1973 in West Virginia by Governor Arch Moore.
In 1978, five years after its West Virginia inception, the United StatesCongress passed legislation proclaiming the first Sunday after Labor Day as National Grandparents Day.
The proclamation was signed by President Jimmy Carter. September was chosen for the holiday, to signify the "autumn years" of life.
Today this event, begun by only a few, is observed by millions throughout the United States.
