October

October 10 - Bonza Bottler Day - The day was created by Elaine Fremont in 1985. She wanted a day each month to celebrate. The days are celebrated when the number of the day is the same as the month and when the number of the month, the number of the day, and the last number of the year are the same. Elaine died in a car accident in 1995. Her sister, Gail Berger, has taken over. Bonza Bottler Day is celebrated in many parts of the world and clubs have been formed. The day can be celebrated with a party but you can also make it a special occasion such as dinner out with friends. Their mascot is a friendly groundhog.
