President’s Day is in about a week and we want to help you celebrate. In today’s Wildwood Park Apartments Blog, we have a list of things you can do on President’s Day to honor this patriotic holiday. We hope you enjoy a long weekend with loved ones here in Arlington, VA.
Visit the Lincoln Memorial
The Lincoln Memorial is a great place to visit in honor of President’s Day. Learn more about it here. “The grand Lincoln Memorial towers over the Reflecting Pool, anchoring the western end of the National Mall. The best way to approach the memorial is from the east, by the Washington Monument and the National World War II Memorial. This will put you at the edge of the Reflecting Pool, a shimmering expanse which best illuminates the grand structures honoring our most storied leaders.”
Attend the George Washington Birthday Parade
This is a great parade to attend and a great way to celebrate President’s Day. Check it out: “The annual George Washington Birthday Parade is held annually on the third Monday in February. It winds through a one-mile route along the historic streets of Old Town on President's Day. It is the oldest and largest, thanks to thousands of participants. More programs scheduled throughout the birthday weekend make it the cornerstone of a month of celebratory events.”
