A Notable Point..If you are willingly looking for a theme for fathers day? Here, I am clearing you that, Father's Day is not a United Nations Observance so this Day is not proffered by a specific theme by the UNs.

History of Father’s Day

Did you know? Mrs Sonora Smart Dodd. The mother of Father’s Day was raised by a single dad.

Invention

The mission to commend the country's dads didn't meet with a similar enthusiasm may be in light of the fact that, as one flower vendor clarified, "fathers haven't the very Same appeal that moms have."

 

In the USA, the 1st noticed Father's Day festivity was hung on July 5th 1908, in Fairmont, West Virginia. It was first celebrated as a church gathering at Williams Memorial Methodist Episcopal Church South, presently known as Central United Methodist Church.

 

A Spokane, Washington, lady named Sonora Smart Dodd, one of six kids raised by a single man attempted to set up an authority comparable to Mother's Day for male guardians. She went to nearby places of worship, the YMCA, retailers and government authorities to find support for her thought, and she was successful: Washington State celebrated the country's first statewide Father's Day on June 19, 1910.

Monongah Incident and Effort of grace golden

It is said that Grace Golden Clayton suggested the service to the pastor as a memorial after a mine explosion in nearby Monongah had killed More than 360 men and boys the previous winter, and left about 1,000 children were fatherless. Another explanation for the service was Mothers' Day, which had been celebrated for the first time two months prior in Grafton, a town that was 15 miles away.

Gain Momentum

Slowly, the holiday spread. An alternative claim for the inventor of Father's Day is the president of the Chicago branch of the Lions' Club, Harry Meek. He is said to have celebrated the first Father's Day with his organization in 1915; and the day that they chose was the third Sunday in June, which was the closest Sunday to Meek's birthday.

The first Father's Day in June was celebrated on June 19th 1910, in Spokane, WA. In 1924, President Calvin Coolidge recommended the day as a national holiday.

Finally, in 1972, President Richard Nixon signed a law declaring that Father’s Day is celebrated annually on the third Sunday in June. It has been an official, permanent national holiday ever since.
