In 1999, National Women's Friendship Day (September 20th) was founded by Kappa Delta National Sorority, which is based in Memphis. Starting in 2009, the day becomes a month--the entire month of September!
Here is a list to help you think of activities that you and your friends can enjoy together.

Personally, I think the logo would make a beautiful scissors fob!
