1. Go to www.NationalPunctuationDay.com and become familiar with punctuation
rules and issues.
2. Organize punctuation activities at your school, library, or office.
3. Share punctuation peeves with founder Jeff Rubin at
Jeff@NationalPunctuationDay.com.
4. Send photos of incorrectly punctuated signage to Jeff Rubin at
Jeff@NationalPunctuationDay.com
5. Forward this news as a way to spread the importance of proper punctuation.

- Entrants must send a recipe and a sample of their cookie, cake, pastry,
doughnut, or bread baked in the shape of a punctuation mark to National
Punctuation Day, 1517 Buckeye Court, Pinole, CA 94564.
- Entrants must send two print photos ‹ one putting the item in an oven
before baking and the other taking it out when it¹s done. Make sure we can
