NATIONAL SANDWICH DAY
Whether you stack it high or thin, National Sandwich Day on November 3rd recognizes one of America’s favorite lunch items. #NationalSandwichDay
We have a British nobleman to thank! The sandwich was popularized in 1762 by John Montagu, the 4th Earl of Sandwich, who allegedly asked for meat tucked between two slices of bread so he could eat without leaving the gambling table. It was convenient, and the idea instantly caught on!
Actionable Focus: How to Celebrate!
1. Go Gourmet: Ditch the basic ham and cheese. Try creating a signature sandwich with artisan bread, unique sauces, and gourmet fillings.
2. Support Your Deli: Visit a local mom-and-pop deli or sandwich shop to show them some love.
3. Pay It Forward: Make an extra sandwich and give it to a person in need—a simple way to honor a truly universal food.
GREAT AMERICAN SMOKEOUT
Each year on the third Thursday in November, the American Cancer Society sponsors the Great American Smokeout. #GreatAmericanSmokeout
MICKEY MOUSE BIRTHDAY
On November 18th, Mickey Mouse Birthday commemorates the debut of a lovable mouse that was once a rabbit called Oswald. His character got his start on film on November 18, 1928, but before that, the story begins in 1927, when Walt Disney first sketched a floppy-eared bunny while under contract to Universal Studios. The events that unraveled brought us Mickey Mouse. #MickeyMouseBirthday

National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day
Across the country on January 9th each year, citizens take the lead to show support on National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day.
Law Enforcement Officers of every rank and file have chosen a profession that puts their life on the line every day for their communities. They’ve answered a call to public service that is demanding and often unappreciated.
From local, state, and federal, their duties command dedication. The jobs are often thankless and take them away from their families for long hours. Rarely do they know what their days have in store for them. Often law enforcement are the only paid emergency resource a community has. More often they work in coordination with other local, state, and federal organizations to make communities safer
