President’s Day originated in 1885 when President Chester A. Arthur declared it a federal holiday to commemorate the “father of our country”. President Calvin Coolidge made it a nationwide holiday in 1924 and President Ronald Reagan officially renamed it President’s Day in 1988. Typically, President’s Day is observed with parades, pageantry, and other festivities throughout the United States as well as commemorative events held at President Washington’s Mount Vernon estate. Even though President’s Day is an occasion to honor an important person in history; for many people, it also has become an opportunity to break away from the everyday routine and share a presidential moment with family or friends.
