On March 1st, 2018 there are only 21,310 days left until America 300.  On this day in 1961 American President John F. Kennedy established the peace corps. The mission of the peace corps is to  promote world peace and friendship by fulfilling three goals:

1. To help the people of interested countries in meeting their need for trained men and women.

2. To help promote a better understanding of Americans on the part of the peoples served. 

3. To help promote a better understanding of other peoples on the part of Americans.

On this day in 1987, the American singer, songwriter and actress Kesha was born. 

 Apparently March 1st, is also national pig day. 

The purpose of National Pig Day is "to accord the pig its rightful, though generally unrecognized, place as one of man's most intellectual and domesticated animals."[2] The holiday is most often celebrated in the Midwest.[4]

National Pig Day includes events at zoos, schools,[5] nursing homes, and sporting events around the United States. It is also recognized at "pig parties" where pink pig punch and pork delicacies are served, and pink ribbon pigtails are tied around trees in the pigs' honor.-Source Wikipedia
