National Grandparents Day

Every day can be Grandparents Day. The official commemorative day is the Sunday after Labor Day. Come treat your grandparents, (or its OK if they treat you) to a yummy treat at DoughBoys Donuts.

National Grandparent's Day is a secular holiday celebrated to honor grandparents for their contribution to our lives, and to give grandparents an opportunity to show love for their children's children. As the number of grandparents continues to grow so does the impact they make on the lives of their grandchildren.

The purpose of the Grandparent's Day was beautifully summarized in the proclamation: "The elders of each family have the responsibility for setting the moral tone for the family and for passing on the traditional values of our Nation to their children and grandchildren. They bore the hardships and made the sacrifices that produced much of the progress and comfort we enjoy today." (Jimmy Carter, President of the United States of America, Proclamation 4580 - National Grandparents Day, 1978 August 3, 1978).
