Fun Fact Image 2

Did you know that "the dog days of summer" is more than just a colorful turn of phrase? It's true! Running between July 3rd and August 11th, the dog days of summer are historically the hottest days of the year. The Romans referred to this period as "dies caniculares" or "days of the dog star," which was eventually translated as just "dog days."

A weekly Fun Fact will be posted to the website. Tune in every week to learn something new! If you have a fact you would like to submit, send it to editor@avocanebraska.com
