I was updating my website the other day, and wanted to add fun things to do on Labor Day to my Lake Wylie Events and Activities page. Surprisingly, there are very few public events held on Labor Day in this area. I found a parade in downtown Charlotte, and an ad for Carowinds, but other than that, nada. What gives?
Maybe it's the origin of the holiday - - commemorating the accomplishments of organized labor. Labor unions have not been as active in the South as in some of the other parts of the country. Plus, the timing is a bit off - - Labor Day has traditionally been known as the "end of summer." Up North, it's the last weekend before school starts, and lots of families are finishing up their time at the "shore." In the South, however, schools have been in session for a couple of weeks already, and our fall schedules have already cranked up.
It's still quite hot and humid, of course, so that tends to put a damper on our festive spirits a bit. So just kick back with some neighbors or friends and enjoy a cookout by the lake this weekend. For upcoming Fall Festivals, check out my website TheLakeWylieMan.com!
