Have you looked at the calendar lately? How many days are remaining in 2019? Time to plan for all the end of year events—coordinating company parties, gathering gift ideas, and booking that holiday photoshoot. We just had our last quarter meeting here at On Point Executive Center and thought we’d share some of the dates we’ve circled.

October Means… 

We have officially “Fall-en” head over heels for Autumn. Most people are well-aware of Halloween on the last day of the month, but did you remember Columbus Day (10/14) or National Boss’s Day (10/16)? As one of the ten federal holidays—and probably one of the most overlooked—banks and government offices are closed on Columbus Day. Celebrating National Boss’s Day is a great way to recognize our fearless leaders for all their hard work. If YOU are the boss, treat yourself! It never hurts to say “thank you” throughout the year!

Speaking of Thankfulness

Thanksgiving is synonymous with November, but it can easily sneak up on the timeline. This year Thanksgiving, Black Friday and Cyber Monday fall on November 28th, November 29th, and December 2nd, respectively. Veterans’ Day is Monday, November 11th when we honor those who have served in the United States Armed Forces. But before that, don’t forget to set your clocks back an hour earlier on Daylight Savings Time, November 3rd. 

Honest Reflections

December is a favorite time for many families with Christmas (12/25), Kwanzaa (12/26) and Festivus “for the rest of us” (12/23). 2020 is right around the corner, which means it’s a welcome time for honest reflections.
