This weekend is Labor Day Weekend, culminating in the
celebration of Labor Day on Monday. For some, it signals a three-day weekend,
barbecues, golf outings and family reunions. For others, it’s the end of summer,
the start of a new school year and the start of the football season. For
retailers it’s probably one of the biggest sales weekends of the year.
That’s great, but it’s also important to remember why Labor Day
came to be. It was originally established to celebrate the achievements of workers
and to recognize their contributions – no matter what industry – to the
strength and welfare of this country; to celebrate workers and their commitment
to the past, present and future.
So, while we enjoy this weekend and all its celebrations, let’s take
some time to celebrate the hard work, accomplishments and contributions that
make our country a better place.
