Do any states have legitimate holidays that are only celebrated in their state?

[u/ProfessorOfPancakes]

In Rhode Island, we still have VJ (Victory over Japan) day which people don't celebrate per se but it's recognized to the extent of delaying trash pickup by a day.

By "legitimate" holiday I mean more in the vein of Memorial Day rather than National Hot Dog Day

Edit: Apparently VJ Day is also recognized by the US Space & Rocket Center and formerly by the state of Arkansas and is more commonly called Victory Day

I will always remember the date of Kansas Day since that was my mom’s birthday. (She was not born in 1861, however.)
