Get Ready For Kindergarten Month
The summers almost over and back to school is sneaking up quickly. Is your youngster ready for the big day?

Can he dress himself? Does she know her numbers? Can he write his name? Can she tie her shoelaces? Is your child ready for school?

Well there’s still time to help prepare your child (and yourself) for his/her first day of school.

National Aviation Day
By Presidential Proclamation and observed annually, during National Aviation Week, on the anniversary of Orvill Wright’s birthday.

Bad Poetry Day
A day for celebrating the dreadful and sappy poetry we’ve encountered thoughout our lives.

“To achieve memorable badness is not so easy. It has to be done innocently, by a poet unaware of his or her defects. The right combination of lofty ambition, humorless self-confidence, and crass incompetence is rare and precious.”*

The Michigan Insane Asylum
Is up on the top of the hill,
And some irresponsible crazies
Meander around there at will,
And they frequently talk to a stranger,
And they sometimes escape, it is true,
But the folks are not all of them crazy
Who hail from Kalamazoo.
