"I remind you that the state holiday falling on the third Monday of February is referred to in statute as Washington and Lincoln Day (63G-1-301). I encourage the use of this name in school calendars and other communication"
Larry Shumway, Ed.D.
State Superintendent of Public Instruction
So, in Utah, we don't have Presidents' Day, which might involve celebrating the contributions of presidents that out legislators don't like. I can see them in my mind's eye, carefully pondering the REALLY BIG issues: should we have an official state firearm? If we have Presidents' Day, could that be interpreted by some to include Barack Obama? Oh, and if we have a Constitutional Convention, should we get it catered? Red punch?
