Fathers’ and Grandfathers' Day


PEACE AND IMPEACH

Sunday, June 17th from 2-4 pm.
Gazebo, Plaza de la Constitucione

Sponsored by Grandparents for Peace, St. Augustine

Bring photos, letters, poems, and memories to share. Bring your daughter, mother, wife, grandmother, and great-grand.


It will be the first time that this important holiday has been celebrated publicly in St. Augustine. Men deserve more than ties and meals. Women couldn’t produce babies without them. There are more men than women in Congress.

We must tell Congress how we stand: We stand for PEACE AND IMPEACH!


This event is open to all. It is suggested that women wear pants and ties. For info, call 471 1986.

History of Father’s Day- Sonra Louise Smart Dodd of Spokane, WA, started the observance of the Father's Day on the 19th of June, in 1910. She wanted to express her thanks to her own father, who had reared her on his own, since the death of her mother. Her father, Henry Jackson Dodd celebrated his birthday in June, thus, she chose this month to celebrate the holiday.
