Hey everyone! It’s that time of year again; it’s time for college football! I’m so excited! I’ve been waiting on college football since the beginning of summer. What better way to lead into the college game nights, than with a holiday to support your favorite team? College Colors Day is on September 3rd, and it’s encouraging you to wear your school colors with pride!

Now, I don’t really need a reason or a holiday to show my school pride (this blogger is a DAWG fan!), but I think it’s great that there’s a holiday that’s uniting all college fans and alums, especially in the workforce, and ensuring that your school pride doesn’t end at graduation.

College Colors Day began in 2005, and is officially an annual celebration dedicated to promoting the traditions and spirit that make the college experience great by encouraging people across America to wear apparel of

their favorite college or university throughout the day.

The College Colors Day website suggests ways that your workplace can get into the spirit of the holiday by posting a notice about the holiday in the company newsletter or blog, or having a potluck of sorts, with everyone wearing their team paraphernalia.  Be sure to check out the website for more ideas and to register your company!

So, be sure to rock your teams colors this Friday! I know I’ll be sporting my red and black!
