Leap years are a way of keeping calendar years of 365 days in sync with astronomical years of 365.2425 days. The extra day every four years balances it out and keeps us all on track.

Those lucky enough to be born on February 29 not only have the delight of being called “leaplings” but also have to decide for three out of four years when to celebrate their birthday.

Despite great strides in equality men still seem be expected to do the asking. Unless it’s a leap year, Women can by tradition, propose to a man on February 29. If a man did refuse the proposal, he would be fined a kiss, a silk dress or twelve pairs of gloves.

The frog is a symbol associated with February 29, so really it’s Signal’s Day.

Please indicate the number of people in your party in your "Will Attend" log. We have seating for approximately 32 people.

Even if it seems like we've got a full house -- feel free to stop by and say "Hello" to Attend!
