Memorial Day

Memorial day is where we celebrate for the fallen heros who fought for our country.
Memorial day occurs during May 30th you can celebrate Memorial day in many ways like plan a Memorial day BBQ, have a family picnic, or go visit the cemetery and visit one of the soldier’s gravestone. Back then a civil war had broke out and our nation soldiers came to fight in the war. During the war many states fought and many soldiers and innocent people died. Memorial Day is a federal holiday. All non-essential Government offices are closed, as are schools, businesses and other organizations. Most public transit systems do not run on their regular schedule. Many people see Memorial Day weekend as an opportunity to go on a short vacation or visit family or friends.
