   We used to celebrate his birthday, but they combined birthdays and   
   created President's day to just have one day off in Feb.   
      
   Darwin's day isn't an official holiday.  It was meant to acknowledge   
   Darwin's contribution to our understanding of nature.   
      
   Biologos usually celibrate Darwin Day, but I didn't see anything this year.

   This is what I got when I searched Darwin Day on their web site.
