Geography Awareness Week and GISDay 2007 - A Few Of Our Favorite Educational Resources Posted on November 12, 2007 This week we are pleased to celebrate Geographic Awareness. In 1987, U.S. President Ronald Reagan signed legislation establishing the third week in November as Geography Awareness Week (GAW). Every year since then, the National Geographic Society has promoted the importance of geography to the public and to schools throughout the United States and in Canada during Geography Awareness Week. During that time approximately 1.5 million students have participated in geography-related activities. Join us in celebrating Geography Awareness Week & GIS Day 2007.
