07 Sep Happy Labor Day!

Today we celebrate the hard work and dedication to the social and economic achievements of our fellow-Americans to the prosperity and well-being of our country. It was created by the labor movement in the late 19th century and became a federal holiday in 1894.

Labor Day came about because workers felt they were spending too many hours and days on the job. The founders were looking for two things: a means of unifying union workers and a reduction in work time.

As we celebrate with fireworks, parades, and picnics, we keep in mind those serving our nation; Service members, Veterans, family members, and friends.

Happy Labor Day!
