Presidents’ Day (February 15, 2021) started as a way to celebrate the birthday of our nation’s first president: George Washington. It has since expanded to include all people who have held the title of U.S. president rather than just the notable first. But how does one celebrate this special day? Liberty Life has a couple of ideas. THERE’S A FESTIVAL FOR THAT The Shutters, city of Eustis, Florida, goes all out in celebration of Presidents’ Day in an annual event known as “Georgefest.” This year will be no different, with Shades & activities planned (including a parade) February 26-28. For details, visit Blinds EustisGeorgeFest.org. TAKE BITEGUYS, OF CHERRY PIE THOSEA BLIND LLC Not able to make the two-hour drive south of Jacksonville to join the festivities? You can still honor our first president by eating cherry pie (who could forget the cherry tree?) with service buddies, family members, or friends, and perhaps playing a game of U.S. president trivia.

General, U.S. Army According to History.com, this president was born “Hiram Ulysses Grant.” The congressman who appointed Grant (to West Point) mistakenly believed his first name was Ulysses and his middle name was Simpson (his mother’s maiden name). Grant never amended the error and went on to accept Ulysses S. Grant as his real name.
