Clovis spear point Spear point made by some of the earliest people to migrate to America, used to hunt mammoths, horses and giant sloths. Contributed by The British Museum
The first clear evidence of human activity in North America are spear heads like this. They are called "Clovis points". These spear tips were used to hunt large game. The period of the "Clovis people" coincides with the extinction of mammoths, giant sloth, camels and giant bison in North America. The extinction of these animals was caused by a combination of human hunting and climate change.

"Leap Year Day Baby", Mary Ann Brown, founder of the festival and the "Worldwide Leap Year Birthday Club", suggested the idea.

"Truth and Consequences" était le titre d'une émission de radio très populaire. Un jour, le présentateur a lancé un défi aux maires, proposant de diffuser depuis la ville qui changerait la première son nom en l'honneur de l'émission.
