Anniversaries, Holidays, and Observances for July 17, 2021
Many days there are far too many anniversaries, holidays, and observances to post about individually on social media, so in an effort to have more of them available, LLPHP is going to experiment with posting them daily. If there are other items you feel should be included, please email contact@llphp.org and share!
Please note all holidays and observances listed as “National” days are American holidays and observances unless it is stated otherwise.
