Patriot's Day

For some people in the states of Massachusetts and Maine, the third Monday of April is a welcome day off work or school.
WHY? 'Cause of Patriot's Day in United States.
Patriot's Day (or Patriots' Day) commemorates the battles of Lexington and Concord, which were fought near Boston in 1775. Patriot's Day is annually held on the third Monday of April. It should not be confused with Patriot Day, held on September 11 to mark the anniversary of terrorist attacks in the USA in 2001.
