Groundhog Day

When: February 2

On February 2nd, announce that spring is just around the corner with promotional products from ePromos! This winter, you don’t have to see your shadow to celebrate Groundhog Day.

Groundhog Day was first declared in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania in 1886. The Punxsutawney Spirit newspaper declared that year, “Today is groundhog day, and up to the time of going to press the beast has not seen his shadow.” Since then, Groundhog Day has become a major nation-wide event. Punxsutawney Phil, the most famous of groundhog prognosticators, is watched every February 2nd to determine if he sees his shadow after emerging from his hole after a long winter sleep. If he does, it is regarded as an omen of six more weeks of bad weather. If the day is cloudy, and thereby shadow-less, it is said to mean an early spring. Punxsutawney Phil has had many noteworthy highlights throughout his history including visiting the White House, staring in a major motion picture, and appearing live on numerous talk shows, including Oprah.

In the dead of winter, everyone looks forward to the warm weather to come. Even if Phil predicts a more chilly days, choose to celebrate the spring with promotional products from ePromos!
