History of Lumberjack Day
The origin and the history of this day date back to 2005. Marianne Ways and Colleen AF Venable established it. It is also commemorated as a day to eat lots of pancakes and waffles with friends. Venable herself had worked as a lumberjack and mentioned that this idea of celebrating this day had come as an excuse to move out and eat some pancakes. The Lumberjack celebrations include pirate-themed parties and are worth noting that this day comes after a week of Talk Like a Pirate Day. The celebration of this day gained overall popularity and is celebrated by people who dress up in plain and beards. They even carry fake axes and throw huge lumberjack-themed parties.
