Memorial Day

Do you know why we have a holiday this weekend?  Memorial Day is about much more than a day off, barbeques, and picnics.  It is a day to remember those who have fallen in wars.  Interestingly, Memorial Day has roots going all the way back to the Civil War, which we just finished studying in class.  Learn about the meaning of Memorial Day.
