June 16th is Father’s Day! It’s a celebration honoring fathers and celebrating fatherhood, paternal bonds, and the influence of fathers in society. In some societies, Father’s Day is a celebration for men to get together and hike or have a physical adventure to celebrate their manhood.

June 5th is World Environment Day, an annual event sponsored by the U.N. aimed at being the biggest and most widely celebrated global day for positive environmental action. World Environment Day activities take place all year round but climax on 5 June every year. This year’s host country is Brazil and this year’s topic is “Does it include you?”

June 21st is the first day of summer—are you ready to celebrate?   Summer begins on the solstice, the day when the Earth’s axis tilts our northern hemisphere most prominently toward the sun. (In the southern hemisphere, the summer solstice occurred on Dec. 22, 2011.) On this day, the sun will reach its highest point in the sky, and afterward, the daylight hours will grow shorter.
