Thought I'd post an update on which states have submitted applications for an Awareness Day and who has been approved. If anyone is interested in still applying, you may be cutting it close for a STATE proclamation, but CITIES do them as well. The city proclamations get processed much quicker, sometimes as fast as 24 hours. In case my photo doesn't come up... New York – Approved Illinois – Approved Texas – Approved Missouri – Approved Nevada – Approved North Carolina – Approved Kentucky: Louisville, KY - Approved , Lexington – Approved Wisconsin – Approved Maryland – Approved Tennessee – Approved Arkansas - Approved Washington DC Arizona Michigan Rhode Island Virginia Washington UK Minnesota Georgia Louisiana Florida Pennsylvania Ohio Connecticut Maine Indiana

The price is per person. In order to register, once you pull up the page https://squareup.com/market/ne-pans-slash-pandas-parents-association hover over what you want, click, and an "add to cart" button should open in a new page. If this is not happening for you, I would contact the NE PANS/PANS Parents Association at info@nepandasparents.com.
