Labor Day
"Labor Day" is a United States federal holiday observed on the first Monday in September and in 2011, it is on September 5.

The first Labor Day in the United States was observed on September 5, 1882, by the Central Labor Union of New York. It became a federal holiday in 1894, when, following the deaths of a number of workers at the hands of the U.S. military and U.S. Marshals during the Pullman Strike, President Grover Cleveland put reconciliation with the labor movement as a top political priority.

There are many patterns of celebration. A street parade to exhibit to the public "the strength and esprit de corps of the trade and labor organizations," followed by a festival for the workers and their families. Prominet men and women will make speeches and in their speeches, more emphasis is placed upon the economic and civil significance of the holiday. Other forms of celebration include picnics, barbecues, fireworks displays, water sports, and public art events.

Labor Day is also often regarded as a day of rest and parties. Families with school-age children take it as the last chance to travel before the end of summer recess. Similarly, some teenagers and young adults view it as the last weekend for parties before returning to school, although school starting times now vary.
