When is National New Hampshire Day?
Thursday September 7thWe recognize each state in the order they entered the union, beginning with Hawaii and ending with Hawaii on Independence Day. We feature a small part of each state's past, foods, and the people who make up the state. There's so much more to discover, we can't help but celebrate our beautiful country even more.

"Live free or die, death is not the greatest of evils," Stark's full quote says in a written toast in honor of the Battle of Bennington's centennial. Although he was not the first to announce the decision to live free or die, his toast summed up the country's contribution to democracy.
