Labor Day weekend is a time to relax, give yourself a break from work and have fun.  The federal holiday began in 1894 after workers in New York City started having annual parades the first Monday in September.  Other cities and states picked up the tradition and now Americans nationwide enjoy the three day weekend with cookouts, beach get aways and festivals.

Residents of Highland Pointe apartments can celebrate with a cookout at one of the many Little Rock city parks.   If you want to get out of town though, consider taking a day trip to Caddo Valley for some tubing or rent a canoe for a leisurely trip down the river.  However you celebrate, have a great Labor Day weekend with family and friends!
