Celebrate May!

May Day
These days, May Day is more a celebration of new life and the beginning of spring. Different celebrations include choosing a May Queen to 'head' the day's festivities, dancing around a maypole, morris dancing, collecting flowers, and a belief that a girl should wash her face with dew on May morning to obtain lasting beauty.
