"Amateur Radio Week is being observed today! It has always been observed the 7 days ending with Field Day."

>From a 2016 article:
"Michigan Gov Rick Snyder cited Amateur Radio’s role as “a bridge between peoples, societies, and countries, by creating friendships and the sharing of ideas,” in proclaiming June 20-26 as “Amateur Radio Week.” Snyder cited Amateur Radio’s voluntary community service and its role in emergencies and disasters."
The Governor has renewed the proclamation for 2018:

"..... I, Rick Snyder, governor of Michigan, do hereby proclaim June 18-24, 2018 as Amateur Radio Week in Michigan."
I have not found a 2018 pdf document to display as in past years.
