National Girls & Women In Sports
Day – Women are still often discriminated against in sports.
Many people feel that sports played by women are not really sports
worthy of watching. This is a day to fight against discrimination in
the sporting world and focus on the benefits that girls receive from
participating in sports. https://www.womenssportsfoundation.org/en/home/advocate/ngwsd
National Weatherperson's Day –
This day recognizes the contributions of meteorologists all over the
country, along with volunteer storm spotters and observers, who work
hard to make sure we are not caught unawares when bad weather
strikes. My favorite weatherperson for the Hudson Valley in New York
is Alex at http://www.hudsonvalleyweather.com/
. I don't know how he does it but he is more accurate than any
weatherperson on the news that I've ever seen.
Digital Learning Day – This is
a day that is all about giving children an opportunity to excel in
college and their future careers by using technology in schools.
Learning in a digital environment improves the quality of education
for all students. http://www.digitallearningday.org/splash
Western Monarch Day –
Established by the California state legislature in 2004, this day
celebrates the return of the Monarch butterfly to the central coast
of California to spend the winter.
World Nutella Day – This is a
day to have some of this delicious chocolate and hazelnut spread, you
can put this stuff on almost anything and it will taste good.

National Chocolate Fondue Day –
Almost everyone loves chocolate covered food of all kinds. I know
this because I conducted a poll in my house. Get out that fondue pot
you know you've got stashed somewhere and make some fondue to dip
your food in today.
To celebrate today, use your digital
resources to learn about the positive benefits of playing sports for
the women in your life. Then contact your favorite weatherperson and
thank them for their hard work. Next, make some fondue and dip your
nutella covered crackers into it while you watch for Monarch
butterflies in your backyard.
