- In 1984, President Ronald Reagan designated July as National Ice Cream Month and the third Sunday of the month as National Ice Cream Day. He recognized ice cream as a fun and nutritious food that is enjoyed by a full 90% of the nation's population.
- sponsored by the National Recreation and Park Association this event is to remind local decision makers and the community of the exciting and vital role that parks and recreation play in the lives of Americans. The theme for 2010 is "Celebrate, Advocate, Recreate!".
