This year, President's Day falls on February 20th, but originally, President's Day was marked on former President George Washington's birthday (2/22/1732). Fun fact: since President's day was moved to the third Monday of the month, President's day can never be on Washington’s Birthday as the latest day a third Monday can assume is 2/21. #presidentsday #globe #berkeleyglobe
