Please don’t forget to set you’re, traditional clocks, home devices and your car clock too at end of day Saturday to be “on time” for Sunday! :o)

Top 3 Fun Facts:
1. In the United States, daylight saving time began on March 21, 1918. U.S. government officials reasoned that fuel could be saved by reducing the need for lighting in the home.
2. Ancient Agrarian Civilizations used a form of daylight saving time, adjusting their timekeeping depending on the sun’s activity.
3. Benjamin Franklin came up with an idea to reset clocks in the summer months as a way to conserve energy.

Have an Awesome weekend!
