National Custodian Day - October 2

They don't ask for recognition, and many don't even want to be placed in the limelight. But, once a year, custodians are recognized with a day of their own.  It's called National Custodian Day and it falls annually on October 2.  This year that is a Saturday.  

National Custodian Day recognizes the work that is done by custodians as they toil away at their normal cleaning tasks such as emptying garbage, cleaning restrooms, washing windows and so on.  It also recognizes the behind-the-scenes work they do which often goes unnoticed.  And with COVID-19 raging the last 18 months, custodians have been thrown into a whole new ballgame of keeping buildings clean and disinfected while at the same time keeping themselves and their families healthy.
