'''Yap Day''' is a legal holiday in [[Yap State]], one of the four states of the [[Federated States of Micronesia]] (FSM), held annually on March 1.<ref name="Aoyama 2001"/>{{rp|2}} It is a celebration of traditional [[Yapese people|Yapese]] culture. Common activities held during this time include competitions and traditional dances.
==History==
In 1968, the Yap Islands Congress created ''Yap District Day'' to preserve Yapese culture. The date March 1 was chosen because it was considered the "most pleasant" season because of its dryness. The event's name was changed to ''Yap Day'' in March 1979.<ref name="Aoyama 2001"/>{{rp|3}}
In 1990, Yap Day activities included running, bicycling, juggling, tug of war, coconut husking, and basket weaving. Five dances were also held. Most of these activities and dances were aimed at preserving the culture of Yap properly.<ref name="Aoyama 2001"/>{{rp|4}}
In 1999, Yap Day was held as a three-day celebration starting on February 28. This was reportedly to accommodate the children's school schedule, though observers also noted that this coincided with Yap's tourist flight schedules. The opening ceremony was conducted almost entirely in Yapese. Different dances were held for the boys, girls, women, and men, including standing, sitting, and stick dances. Activities included children's cultural games such as target shooting or basket weaving. Booths around the dance arena represented the outer islands of Yap and international organizations such as the Peace Corps. Other booths sold food.<ref name="Aoyama 2001"/>{{rp|4–5}}
As of 2001, a member of the [[Yap Women's Association]] served each year on the organising committee.<ref name="Aoyama 2001"/> In 2002, Yap Day was broadcast throughout the [[Federated States of Micronesia]] on radio and throughout Yap proper on television.<ref name="Komai 2005"/>{{rp|37}}
==Events==
[[File:Yapese men dancers in traditional dress celebrating Yap Day.jpg|left|thumb|180px|Yapese men dancers celebrating Yap Day.]]
Each year a different village hosts the Mit-mit and provides traditional and Western food. Before Yap Day, the villages rehearse traditional dances, which serve as a mode of storytelling.<ref name="Dennis 2006"/><ref name="Pinsker 1992"/> Outer islanders are prohibited from participating in dances, though they may attend.<ref name="Komai 2005"/>{{rp|36}} Competitions include traditional tattooing, fresh produce contests, and traditional games.<ref name="Dennis 2006"/> The Yap Tradition Navigation Society holds an event where participants build and sail traditional canoes.<ref name="Jeffery"/> On the last day, the Yap Visitors Bureau hosts a welcome reception to honor guests who traveled to the island.<ref name="Dennis 2006"/>
