The MARCHVEGAS 4-day™ Holiday movement was started on April 7th, 2011. The petition for this holiday is orchestrated by MARCHVEGAS.ORG to promote the initiative, gain support and accomplish its two primary goals.
MARCHVEGAS 4-day™ Holiday Goals:
a. To add two annual vacation days for all Americans since we are well behind in allotted vacation time when compared to other nations; creating a 4-day™ holiday.
b. To celebrate educators, teachers, academics, alumni, students and student athletes during a time when the country, workforce and student population is focused on collegiate athletics; i.e. during the first week of March Madness.
Therefore, the first Thurs and Fri of March Madness and through the weekend will mark the annual commencement of the MARCHVEGAS 4-day™ Holiday.
