How to Create Special Days

Save Your Hearing Day

Date When Celebrated: This holiday is always held on May 31

Save Your Hearing Day reminds us that our hearing is vital, and needs to be protected.

Many hearing loss problems are avoidable. Hearing loss can result from a variety of reasons, including: health, genetic and environmental causes. On the environmental side, repeated long term exposure to loud, high decibel noises can overtime cause hearing loss. This cause, in particular, is often avoidable.

Use Save Your Hearing Day as an opportunity to learn what you can do to avoid hearing loss to yourself, and your family. Then, practice it.

Heard at a nursing home: It's hard to be nostalgic when you can't remember anything.

Our research did not find the creator, or the origin of this day. We suspect a medical group or deaf association may have started this day.

One reader suggest that the following event may have something to do with the creation of this special day: "On May 31, 1976, The Who played at the Charlton Athletic Grounds in England and made the Guinness Book of World Records as the loudest rock band ever. Their musical performance measured 76,000 watts and 120 decibels. "

Recipe of the Day: Sour Cream Coffee Cake
