National 7-Eleven Day marks the birthday of the convenience store chain originally named “Tote’m” in 1927, renamed 7-Eleven in 1946 after its new operating hours of 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. — now operating more than 83,000 locations in 20 countries. Free Slurpee Day is the annual promotion in which 7-Eleven distributes free small Slurpees on July 11, giving away an estimated 9 million frozen drinks. International Skinny Dip Day was established to celebrate the practice of swimming without a suit, observing that the removal of clothing in water is one of the oldest recreational traditions in human history. All American Pet Photo Day was created to encourage pet owners to take professional-quality photographs of their animals and to celebrate the unique personalities of their companions. A store that named itself after its hours, a frozen drink, a stripped-down tradition, and a very photogenic dog.
