The Florida Federation of Republican Women's Spring Conference included many wonderful sessions and speakers, and a special visit from our Florida State Governor Ron DeSantis.

Victory in Europe Day commemorates the formal unconditional surrender of Germany to the Allied Forces at Reims, in northeastern France.  Although signed on May 7, 1945, the German forces on the Eastern front would continue to fight for another day. 

During May, we recognize those in the military who are caregiving for loved ones and those individuals or families who are providing care for our wounded and ill military veterans.  

Every May we celebrate Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders Heritage Month, recognizing the cultures of East, Southeast, and South Asia as well as the Pacific Islands of Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia. This population is approximately 7 percent of the United States, or approximately 22.9 million, and is the fastest growing ethnic group in the country.

National Armed Force Day is an annual event that is held on the third Saturday in May, concluding Armed Forces week when we honor individuals currently serving or having served in one of the branches of the United States of America’s armed forces.
