Holidays and Monthly Observations

Each month of the year contains multiple holidays and celebrations. Some are official and others are less formal, yet just as popular. Still others are more obscure and some are serious, some are humorous. Month by month, read about the events that occur each month, which special person or event is celebrated or observed, and a bit of the history of each month.
