Why is George Washington's official birthday celebration held on February 22 when he was actually born on February 11? we lost 11 days when we changed from the Julian to the gregorian calenders during his life time. so Washington celebrated his birthday 11 days later to make it a year after hi â¦ s last birthday.
Thus, these two holidays celebrate starkly contrasting spiritsâthat of subordination and that of assertion, both healthy aspects of the republican character. What we today call âPresidents Dayâ is in fact Washingtonâs birthday. Just like a republican people must on occasion be reminded of the need for manly assertiveness and modest gratitude, so too must they be reminded of examples of human greatness.
