On July 19, 1910,
the governor of the U.S. state of Washington proclaimed the nation’s first
Father’s Day. However, it was not until 1972, 58 years after President Woodrow
Wilson made Mother’s Day official, that the day became a nationwide holiday in
the United States. Celebrate your father today by making him feel
special and loved with a homemade gift or meal or even the nicest gift of all, your time!
For your friends who may have
lost their father, check in with them as this day will be difficult and there
are many “rad dads” who are elders with wonderful stories to tell at senior
centers. Head to your local café and
grab some yummy pastries, coffee and tea and
honor the elders in your community
