Pi Day

Created in 1988 by an employee of the San Francisco science museum, Pi Day is an annual celebration. Traditionally, the day is celebrated by eating various pies, or holding a ‘pi recitation’ competition.

On the 12th of March, 2009, the US House of Representatives passed a non-binding resolution (a written motion adopted by a deliberative body that can or cannot progress into a law) recognising the 14th of March as National Pi Day.
