The Parrothead Post I case you haven’t heard, the results from this year’s “Riddles In the Sand” celebration are in! August 28 at Aspen’s, with entertainment provided by Matt Hoggatt and Double Dee, the following checks were presented to The Lighthouse Charity Team $24,000.00, The Alzhei- mer’s Foundation $3,000.00, The Shriner’s $3,000.00, and $500.00 for the San Antonio Food Bank on behalf of the San Antonio PHC, for again having the most members represent- ed by a visiting club. Take a bow everyone! A special thank you goes to all of the RITS “worker bees” and to Michelle and Kevin Ware for chairing this event! Job well done! Speaking of RITS, after chairing the past 2 phantastic and successful RITS events, the Wares have graciously stepped down as chairs. Do we need to panic?

If all 466+ members drink a case of beer each, in both September and October, turn in your tab tops, boom, we can gather close to 20 more pounds.

The First Labor Day The first Labor Day holiday was celebrated on Tuesday, September 5, 1882, in New York City, in accordance with the plans of the Central Labor Union. The Central Labor Union held its second Labor Day holiday just a year later, on September 5, 1883.
In 1884 the first Monday in September was selected as the holiday, as originally pro-posed, and the Central Labor Union urged similar organizations in other cities to follow the example of New York and celebrate a "workingmen's holiday" on that date. The idea spread with the growth of labor organizations, and in 1885 Labor Day was celebrated in many industrial centers of the country.
A Nationwide Holiday
The form that the observance and celebration of Labor Day should take was outlined in the first proposal of the holiday — a street parade to exhibit to the public "the strength and esprit de corps of the trade and labor organizations" of the community, followed by a festival for the recreation and amusement of the workers and their families. This became the pattern for the celebra-tions of Labor Day. Speeches by prominent men and women were introduced later, as more emphasis was placed upon the economic and civic significance of the holiday. Still later, by a resolution of the American Federation of Labor convention of 1909, the Sun-day preceding Labor Day was adopted as Labor Sunday and dedicated to the spiritual and educational aspects of the labor movement.
The character of the Labor Day celebration has undergone a change in recent years, especially in large industrial centers where mass displays and huge parades have proved a problem. This change, however, is more a shift in emphasis and medium of expression. Labor Day addresses by leading union officials, industrialists, educators, clerics and government officials are given wide coverage in newspapers, radio, and tele-vision.
The vital force of labor added materially to the highest standard of living and the great-est production the world has ever known and has brought us closer to the realization of our traditional ideals of economic and political democracy. It is appropriate, therefore, that the nation pay tribute on Labor Day to the creator of so much of the nation's strength, freedom, and leadership — the American worker.

CHARITABLE OPPORTUNITIES
The GBPHC Board decided that instead of a different charity every month we would do a different charity every quarter…with that said, following is a list for the year of our charitable opportunities…I will have a drop place at every Happy Hour so please feel free to bring as much as you want and as often as you can… 50/50 Raffle to be taken up both first and third nights, with the draw-
ing on the third Friday night!
We will still be collecting tab tops (don't forget the South Region Chal-lenge) eyeglasses, cell phones, corks, and travel size toiletries!
September---school supplies, backpacks, paper, notebooks, pencils, crayons, teacher supplies, Kleenex, paper towel, hand sanitizer. October--- November---Socks and Underwear for men and women, last year we did over 1400 items, lets beat that this year! Any size, mostly white… December Blue Santa Gifts (will coordinate with Lighthouse Charities to wrap and deliver the week before Christmas)...Our Christmas Party will also benefit the Blue San-ta Project through Lighthouse Charities... THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ALL OF YOUR GENEROSITY AND VOLUN-TEERING YOUR TIME…PARROT HEADS ARE THE BEST! Pege Wright
Never doubt that a small group of committed people can change the
world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.
