The First Thanksgiving Story

In the U. S. Thanksgiving is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November, so in 2011 Thanksgiving is on 24 November.

Beginning with George Washington in 1789, annual presidential proclamations had declared the last Thursday of November as the Thanksgiving date. However, in 1941, a United States Congressional declaration officially designated the fourth Thursday of November as the date of the Thanksgiving holiday.
