Women's History Month

Celebrate in March

In March, we celebrate the endurance of women to deal with the adversity that have experienced in the past.

They have overcome the odds by playing important roles in society, such as in the work force and in organizations.

Native American Indian Heritage Month

Appreciation for Native Americans

On August 3, 1990 President of the United States George H. W. Bush declared the month of November as National American Indian Heritage Month, thereafter commonly referred to as Native American Heritage Month

This commemorative month aims to provide a platform for Native people in the United States of America to share their culture, traditions, music, crafts, dance, and ways and concepts of life.

This gives Native people the opportunity to express to their community, both city, county and state officials their concerns and solutions for building bridges of understanding and friendship in their local area.

National Hispanic Heritage Month

From September 15 through October 15, Americans celebrate the cultures and histories of American citizens whose ancestors from Hispanic regions.

September 15 is the day of independence for Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua.

Presidents Lyndon B. Johnson and Ronald Reagan helped to start this celebration in the late 1970's and enact it into law several years later.
