Labor Day is one of those holidays where the meaning has been lost over the years. It is the traditional end of summer and a day for backyard barbecues with friends and family.
However, Labor Day was created to honor the American worker. The annual holiday pays tribute to the contributions of American workers, and their achievements originated during one of labor history’s most dismal chapters.
Here are a few ways you can honor Labor Day.
• Plan a fall day trip to a local attraction such as the zoo, local park, or restaurant.
• Look ahead to the gifts need to buy and seek out American-made products.
• Send a friendly message on social media to your local police or fire station.
Remember to be kind and patient and take a second to thank any worker you come across this holiday weekend.
