Celebrate the gorgeous month of May!
Welcome to our 22nd edition of Velasco Chronicle & Buzz.
The Sun is warming, the birds are chirping, the flowers are blooming, and the garden is growing. The month of May marks the end of spring and the beginning of summer. There is growing anticipation of backyard barbecue get togethers, outdoor activities, and children anticipating their last days of school before summer vacation. As we approach the fifth month of the year, we have lots of things to celebrate. The three most well known holidays and special days in the month of May include Mother’s Day, Cinco de Mayo and Memorial Day. Mother's Day is the most popular of the special days that occur in May. It's celebrated on the second Sunday of the month. Cinco de Mayo is celebrations and observance of the Mexican culture. Traditions for this special day include traditional Mexican food, music and dance. Cinco de Mayo is a historic time commemorating the victory of the Mexicans over the French during the battle of Pueblo. Memorial Day falls on the last Monday of the month. It was originally known as Decoration Day. It commemorates the U.S. Soldiers who died in military service. Memorial Day also kicks off the summer vacation season for many. The weekend itself is one of the most active shopping seasons of the year.
