  • Columbus Day, 2011
    Proclamations Proc. 8735 To honor Leif Erikson and celebrate our Nordic-American heritage, the Congress, by joint resolution (Public Law 88–566) approved on September 2, 1964, has authorized the President to proclaim October 9 of each year as ‘‘Leif Erikson Day.’’ NOW, THEREFORE, I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim October 9, 2011, as Leif Erikson Day. I call upon all Americans to observe this day with appropriate ceremonies, ac- tivities, and programs to honor our rich Nordic-American heritage. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this seventh day of October, in the year of our Lord two thousand eleven, and of the Independ- ence of the United States of America the two hundred and thirty-sixth. BARACK OBAMA Proclamation 8735 of October 7, 2011 Columbus Day, 2011 By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation On October 12, 1492, Christopher Columbus and his crewmembers sighted land after an ambitious voyage across the Atlantic Ocean. The ideals that guided them to this land—courage, determination, and a thirst for dis- covery—have inspired countless Americans and led to some of our Nation’s proudest accomplishments. Today, we renew our commitment to fostering the same spirit of innovation and exploration that will help future genera- tions reach new horizons. Ten weeks before his arrival in the Americas, Columbus and his crew- members set sail from Spain in search of a westward route to Asia. Though their journey was daring, it did not yield the trade route they sought.

  • 322 School Ceremonies and Observances
    322 SCHOOL CEREMONIES AND OBSERVANCES The United States Constitution and the constitutions of the states, as well as federal and state laws and related court rulings, clearly establish the concept of “church and state separation” and the “preclusion of sectarian instruction in public schools.” In order to help staff members abide by the spirit and letter of the law and to avoid compromising any student’s religious or conscientious beliefs or freedoms, the following guidelines have been established: 1. The Williams Bay School shall offer the Pledge of Allegiance or National Anthem at the beginning of the school day each day. No student shall be compelled, against his or her objections or those of his or her parents or guardians, to recite the Pledge or sing the National Anthem. 2. The observance of religious holidays is not the responsibility of the public schools. 3. Since a public school is not a place of worship, the instructional materials, activities, decorations or assembly programs that are introduced into the schools should not promote any religion. 4. While it is recognized that many activities are initiated with the approach to major holidays to capitalized on the readiness and interest that is generated at these times, it should be understood that such occasions frequently have religious underpinnings. Care should be taken to relate only to the secular aspects of these holidays. a. Music programs given at times close to religious holidays should not use the religious aspect of these holidays as the underlying motive or theme. Although religious music is appropriate in the schools to the extent that it is sung or presented for musical rather than religious content, its use should not violate the secular nature of the school.

  • THE HISTORY of VETERANS DAY - Courtesy of US Department of Veterans’ Affairs
    NOVEMBER 2014 Published by Greene County Department of Human Services since 1976 THE HISTORY OF VETERANS DAY - Courtesy of US Department of Veterans’ Affairs World War I – known at the time as “The Great War” - officially ended when the Treaty of Versailles was signed on June 28, 1919, in the Palace of Versailles outside the town of Versailles, France. However, fighting ceased seven months earlier when an armistice, or temporary cessation of hostilities, between the Allied nations and Germany went into effect on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month. For that reason, November 11, 1918, is generally regarded as the end of “the war to end all wars.” Soldiers of the 353rd Infantry near a church at Stenay, Meuse in France, wait for the end of hostilities. This photo was taken at 10:58 a.m., on No- vember 11, 1918, two minutes before the armistice ending World War I went into effect In November 1919, President Wilson proclaimed November 11 as the first commemoration of Armistice Day with the following words: "To us in America, the reflections of Armistice Day will be filled with solemn pride in the heroism of those who died in the country’s service and with gratitude for the victory, both because of the thing from which it has freed us and be- cause of the opportunity it has given America to show her sympathy with peace and justice in the councils of the nations…" The original concept for the celebration was for a day observed with parades, public meetings and a brief suspension of business beginning at 11:00 a.m.

  • Valuing Immigrant Memories As Common Heritage
    Valuing Immigrant Memories as Common Heritage The Leif Erikson Monument in Boston TORGRIM SNEVE GUTTORMSEN This article examines the history of the monument to the Viking and transatlantic seafarer Leif Erikson (ca. AD 970–1020) that was erected in 1887 on Common- wealth Avenue in Boston, Massachusetts. It analyzes how a Scandinavian-American immigrant culture has influenced America through continued celebration and commemoration of Leif Erikson and considers Leif Erikson monuments as a heritage value for the public good and as a societal resource. Discussing the link between discovery myths, narratives about refugees at sea and immigrant memo- ries, the article suggests how the Leif Erikson monument can be made relevant to present-day society. Keywords: immigrant memories; historical monuments; Leif Erikson; national and urban heritage; Boston INTRODUCTION At the unveiling ceremony of the Leif Erikson monument in Boston on October 29, 1887, the Governor of Massachusetts, Oliver Ames, is reported to have opened his address with the following words: “We are gathered here to do honor to the memory of a man of whom indeed but little is known, but whose fame is that of having being one of those pioneers in the world’s history, whose deeds have been the source of the most important results.”1 Governor Ames was paying tribute to Leif Erikson (ca. AD 970–1020) from Iceland, who, according to the Norse Sagas, was a Viking Age transatlantic seafarer and explorer.2 At the turn History & Memory, Vol. 30, No. 2 (Fall/Winter 2018) 79 DOI: 10.2979/histmemo.30.2.04 79 This content downloaded from 158.36.76.2 on Tue, 28 Aug 2018 11:30:49 UTC All use subject to https://about.jstor.org/terms Torgrim Sneve Guttormsen of the nineteenth century, the story about Leif Erikson’s being the first European to land in America achieved popularity in the United States.

  • Today Is Wednesday, October 9Th. Today Is a Day 3. Good Morning!
    Good morning! Today is Wednesday, October 9th. Today is a Day 3. 1 Please stand for the pledge of allegiance. (wait 3-5 seconds before starting pledge) 2 "I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all." (wait 2-3 seconds to move on)3 Happy Leif Erikson Day! Why do we celebrate Columbus Day when Erikson was here 500 years earlier? Leif Erikson Day is an observance day that is observed on October 9th to honor the Norse explorer who is believed to be the first European to have set foot in North America. The date was chosen because it was the start of the first organized immigration from Norway to the United States that took place during the early nineteenth century. 4 The Remarkable Readers Celebration will be held in the Library on Thursday, October 10th. The celebration is for students who turned in their Summer or September Reading Coupons. Invitations will be delivered during 1st period and the invitation will serve as a pass to the library. The 5th and 6th grade celebration will take place during your lunch. Students are asked to bring their lunch to the celebration. 7th graders will have their celebration scheduled sometime next week because of the field trip Thursday. During the celebration top readers will be recognized and prizes will be given away! Thank you to the PTA for supporting this special celebration! 5 The Falcons Nest will be open today in room 269 during your RTI time.
