I think that Columbus Day will still be celebrated in 200 years becuause people have been celebrating it for over 600 years already. This is not the kind of holiday that is to be forgotten while America is still a young country. And it will remain young for many many years.

I do think that Columbus da will be celebrated 200 years from now. Everyone will still be happy that he found this land. If he did not find it we would not be here. That is how we say thankyou to him.

I have a dream that one day in the future life, that people all over the world would learn to show everyone with the respect they deserve whiether they done something good or bad. Not everyone is bad thy may have bad in them but thats not who they are. I just would like for others to gt to know who each other really are, and stop judging people on they're outside appearance and labeling them bad.

Yes because if we keep pasting the word of Colubus around then we will know he sailed the Mayflower and found this land . Also found people and not just people Native Americans . The Native Americans help them out going crops and building houses . That is why I think they will keep this around 200 years from know .

I dont think Columbis Day will be celibrated 200 hundred year's from now .The reason why I think that is because alot of people don't really celibrat it because alot of poeple don't really like orn care about that special day . Iam just glad we don't have school on that day.
