July is just a one-month-long celebration

Posted on 02 Jul 2019

Everyone associates July with that star-spangled, fireworks-shootin’ holiday, but were you aware that July is FULL of other awesome reasons to celebrate? For instance, July 1 is “International Chicken Wing Day,” and July 14 is “Pandemonium Day,” where you’re encouraged to let loose and stray from your regular routine. If you survive the 14th, the following day is “I Love Horses Day” (go hug a horse!) and then the 20th is our all-time favorite holiday, “National Nap Day.”

No matter which holidays you choose to enjoy, Reunion has a calendar full of fun events and activities to keep you in a celebratory mood all month. Here are a few:
