July Event Calendar (2008)

July 27 is National Parents' Day. President Bill Clinton signed a resolution in 1994 establishing the fourth Sunday of every July as Parents' Day. The resolution declares National Parents' Day, recognizing, uplifting, and supporting the role of parents in the rearing of children. What better way to celebrate than with bowl of blueberry (National Blueberry month) ice cream (National Ice Cream Month.)
