What is a holiday?

Most dictionaries define the word "holiday" in four ways.
The first being a derivative of "Holy Day", inferring the day in question is reserved for a specific worship or expression of gratitude to one's deity of choice.

Another use of the word is simply to describe the suspension of work, and a third, along similar lines, to describe a period of respite or travel for pleasure.

There's also the commemorative use of the word for people or events we deem worthy of celebration/commemoration.

Roll all these ideas into a ball and you've got yourself a reason to declare a holiday for anything your heart desires!

How about a holiday for coloring books?
Believe it or not, In the U.S., August 2nd is  National Coloring Book Day!  Not only that, but September 14th is just plain ol' National Coloring Day!

What is the oldest Holiday?

That has yet to be agreed upon...

What is the first holiday
ever celebrated?

Depends on who you ask...

where was the first holiday celebrated?

You might as well ask Magic 8-Ball...

Babylonians, Greeks and Romans were celebrating stuff 4,000 years ago. Who can get to the bottom of that?

In the 'New Land', since the 1600s, many factions have been jockeying for position to claim the oldest Holiday.

Pagans, Puritans, Pilgrims, Jews, Catholics, Celtics and many others offer narratives claiming the earliest celebrations.

Halloween,Thanksgiving, Christmas and Passover are all tied for first place somehow.

The French celebrated Christmas on Saint Croix Island in Calais, Maine 1604, New England.
So Christmas is 300 years old.

New Year's Day gets credit for being the oldest holiday by the U.S. Government.

ThanksGiving is documented 1619, but is also claimed to be well established before that date.

Annual decorating, gift giving, feasts, and dressing up as spooks and make-believe characters was a tradition long before Anoka, Minnesota claimed the first Halloween party in the 'New Land'.

Maybe Holiday celebration is just like King's Castle Coloring Books - where facts and figures aren't important!
Only imagination!

Let's have a jolly romp and look at...

New England Holidays
No longer celebrated

Training Day: Maintaining arms, defenses and passing such knowledge to the young.
Six times a year, colonists would celebrate a shooting skill competition for big prizes.
Eventually it turned into a military exercise and was taken off the Holiday list.

Anniversary Day: Ministers would travel to larger towns for a day of spiritual teachings.
At the end of the teachings, the Municipalities, and others of influence would lavish them with gifts and feasts.

Forefathers Day was on December 22, celebrating The Mayflower landing at Plymouth with prayers and dinners in praise of success in the New Land.  Sounds like Christmas or Thanksgiving!

Shad Spawning: A celebration of the migration of some fish.
The new settlers took up an old Indian custom and had themselves a good ol' time.  Anything for a party, right?

Agricultural harvests often turned into street parties and neighborhood banquets.
The festivities involved masquerades and street shows about mythological characters and superstition.

Logging expeditions, maple sugar making, corn shucking and apple peeling are just a few of the things town-folk would celebrate to keep moral high in wintery days of old. 

The strange rumor of  YELLOW DAY

Something unusual that comes up when looking into American Holidays is 'Yellow Day'.

Legend has it that a yellowish haze descended on New England in the early 1700s.
The land, the water, homes and horses alike shimmered with dazzling hues under the influence of this weird miasma!

Personal dairies and newspaper accounts referencing Yellow Day were recorded as far back as 1706.
The Yellow Day phenomenon would occur suddenly.  Folks would drop what they were doing and celebrate the beauty of the realm in traditional festival style.

Apparently, the Yellow Day phenomenon was considered a holiday because it was anticipated, a recurring event!
Let's hope Yellow Day comes around again! Sounds like a good time!
