Polson Seniors: Calendar plays catch-up on Leap Day
Leap Day is Feb. 29. The extra day added every four years at the end of February allows the human-made calendar to “catch up” to the actual orbit time of the earth around the sun (365.25 days). You cannot fool Nature – it runs on astronomical time, not Mountain Standard Time.
Persons fortunate enough to be born on Leap Day can have either Feb. 28 or March 1 as their birthday celebration. All the “leap-babies” that I know party on both days for three years.
Applications are now being accepted for the position of Director for Nutrition. Secretarial skills, office management and food service experience preferred.
