Chainmail Day is observed annually on September 22 and we are preparing ourselves to celebrate the historical and incredible armor that still has much relevance today! Do you know that chainmail has been found in almost every medieval culture, and was one of the mainstays of armies in that period, and was particularly loved by the Romans? It is a unique type of armor composed of interwoven links of metal, and often worn over a layer of leather or padded cloth.
National Ants on a Log Day
The National Ants on a Log Day is celebrated on the second Tuesday of September in honor of a protein-packed snack we all love and falls on September 9 this year.

As kids go back to school, this iconic American snack is the brain food they need to stay recharged throughout the day. If you are a fan of peanut butter, occasionally enjoy celery, and can tolerate raisins, then this is the perfect day for you.
