Bill Summary
This bill proclaims the third Friday after labor day as "New Hampshire Day at the Big E".
AI Summary
This bill establishes an annual tradition by requiring the governor of New Hampshire to issue a proclamation recognizing the third Friday after Labor Day as "New Hampshire Day at The Big E" (the Eastern States Exposition, a major agricultural and cultural fair held in West Springfield, Massachusetts). The proclamation aims to honor the exposition's long-standing history of over a century in promoting agriculture and fostering cooperation among New England states. By creating this official day, the bill seeks to formally recognize the significance of the Big E as an important regional event that celebrates the agricultural heritage and interstate collaboration of the New England region. The bill will take effect 60 days after its passage, allowing time for implementation and preparation for the first official proclamation.
