Created by RicMay Ray Day was created by comedian Richard Ankli who wanted to commemmorate his brother Ray with a special holiday in spring when the warm rays of the sun would remind him of his own ray of sunshine.
At least that is the reason that Broadway Fun Spot in St. Joseph, Michigan, gives for making this holiday an official holiday in their “books.
And as usual with holidays, when enough people celebrate it, then it becomes real!
Celebrate May Ray Day by enjoying as many rays of sunshine as you like.
Also you can use this day to give any people named Ray in their literal of figurative moment in the sunny spotlights.
