Get Smart About Credit Day is observed annually every third Thursday in October, falling on October 16 this year. This day is part of the Get Smart About Credit (G.S.A.C.) program where bankers volunteer to help guide the youth towards better credit habits. Learning about how to build credit, maintaining good credit, reducing loan costs, how loans affect your credit score, and monitoring changes to your credit score is important. Being financially responsible is an important life skill to have and it is never too early to start.

Eat A Cranberry Day
National Eat A Cranberry Day is celebrated on November 23 every year. The cranberry is a delicious fruit that creates even more delicious food and beverages, and it has a sweet set of benefits. Legend has it that cranberries were served as part of the feast during the very first Thanksgiving in Plymouth, Massachusetts, in 1621. Eat A Cranberry Day promotes and celebrates all that the red berry offers and is, of course, a day dedicated to eating a cranberry.
