The History of Memorial Day

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)

Memorial Day was originally known as Decoration Day because it was a time set aside to honor the nation's Civil War dead by decorating their graves. It was first widely observed on May 30, 1868, to commemorate the sacrifices of Civil War soldiers.

By the late 1800s, many communities across the country had begun to celebrate Memorial Day and, after World War I, observances also began to honor those who had died in all of America's Wars. In 1971, Congress declared Memorial Day a national holiday to be celebrated the last Monday in May.

This weekend, between family gatherings and outdoor fun, take a moment to remember those who sacrificed (and continue to sacrifice) their lives for our freedom.

To all the American veterans and current members of the military: THANK YOU, from all of us at leaderpromos.com.

The next time your spouse or significant other asks you to stop and pick up a gallon of milk, you might just win the lottery.

That's what happened to Carl Hunter of Metairie, Louisiana! He stopped at a local convenience store to pick up a gallon of milk for his wife, Dianne, and decided to buy a lottery ticket with his pocket change.

Carl and Dianne lost two homes to Hurricane Katrina, and are helping to rebuild the New Orleans community with some of their winnings. Read Carl and Dianne's touching story here:

Hola! Today is Cinco de Mayo!

Until this year, Cinco de Mayo (the "fifth of May") meant an excuse to go out to lunch at my favorite Mexican restaurant... so today, I decided to find out what this holiday is all about. Check out:

for a quick, easy to understand explanation of this holiday that celebrates Mexicans and Americans working together to fight for freedom and liberty.

Look to leaderpromos.com for everything you need to celebrate any special day!  We can print your logo or party theme on any promotional item, from personalized cups, to fun party favors, to brightly-colored t-shirts.

Have you heard the heartwarming reports about the two Central Washington softball players who actually carried an opposing Western Oregon player around the bases and across home plate when she was injured after hitting her first-ever home run?

This selfless act ended up costing Central Washington a berth in the playoffs. A win will be forgotten in a year, but this display of sportsmanship and honor will stay in the minds and hearts of everyone present forever.

Check out the video link below, and you'll feel warm and fuzzy inside, just like I did when I saw it!

Have a great weekend.

You can increase gas mileage up to 10% with two easy steps that don't take a lot of time or money!

What to do:

  • Change your car's air filter at least every six months. This is really easy for most cars, and it's basic cleanliness, just like changing your vacuum cleaner bag. Like those bags, keep a few extra filters on hand to make sure the nuisance factor doesn't get in the way.
  • Get a good tire gauge and use it. You don't have to spend a lot, but buying something better than the cheap pencil-style gauges is probably worth it.

Help your employees, customers, clients and colleagues save on gasoline too by presenting them with a hard-working promotional tire gauge from leaderpromos.com!
