Groundhog Day is celebrated every year on February 2nd midway between the Winter Solstice and the Vernal Equinox. It is celebrated with the Groundhog each year in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania where folks gather around to see if the groundhog will see it's shadow. If the groundhog sees a shadow, there will be 42 more days of winter! It has become a fun day to celebrate in elementary schools.
