As we come to the end of May 2011, let’s take a look at what we have to look forward to in June. I’m sure many of you have heard of weekly observances such as “National Flag Week” but, believe it or not, the list of weekly observances is pretty long. Here is a list of just some of the daily and weekly observances you can look forward to in June.
Weekly observances in June
- National Business Etiquette Week
- Men’s Health Week
- Universal Father’s Week
- Nursing Assistants Week
- National Tire Safety Week

Holidays and day-long observances in June

If you enjoy celebrating holidays and observances, I hope this list has, quite literally, given you more reasons to celebrate this month. People create these celebrations to give recognition to certain people or things, remember to practice something we usually don’t, or just for the plain fun of having extra holidays. Let’s hope that this June is the best one yet! After all, it is “National Smile Month”.
