Greetings!
Welcome to the June 2010 edition of our e-Newsletter published exclusively for members and friends of USA.
Spring ends and summer begins around June 20, 21, or 22 in the
Northern Hemisphere. It's the time that the flowers are beautiful. It is
especially the month for roses. In the Southern hemisphere, winter
begins during June, and it brings cold, rainy weather
to this part of the world.
 Flag Day is observed in
the United States on June 14. It commemorates the day in 1777 when the
Continental Congress adopted the Stars and Stripes as our flag. It then
had only 13 stars, to match its 13 stripes.It's not an official
national holiday, but in Pennsylvania, it is a legal holiday. The
President has proclaimed a public flag day observance every year. It
was first observed to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the selection
of the flag. President Harry S. Truman officially recognized June 14 as
Flag Day by signing the National Flag Day Bill.
Sincerely yours,
The USA Team
