When is Iowa's Birthday?
The admission date and birthdate of Iowa.
We here at Research Maniacs consider Iowa's birthdate
to be the day Iowa joined the Union. In other words,
Iowa's birthday is the date of statehood for Iowa.
The admission date and therefore the birthdate of Iowa is:
December 28, 1846.
You may also be interested to know that Iowa is the
29th state to be admitted to the Union.
Do you know what day of the week Iowa was born? We have
made a calendar for 1846
so you can find out.
Anyway, if this is December 28, then this is Iowa's Birthday. Happy Birthday Iowa!
