Constitution Day !

What is Constitution Day?
On September 17, 1787, the U.S.Constitution was signed by thirty-nine brave men who changed the course of history. Now Constitution Day is a time for us to continue their legacy and develop habits of citizenship in a new generation of Americans.

On December 8, 2004, President Bush signed House Resolution 1848 which officially established September 17th as the "United States Constitution Day."
