Usually those types of proclamations (celebrating local hero) are for that specific date/year only.Yes, that's when it was first declared. May 18 of each year is Nathan Chen Day..
It could be different for the state proclamation but this is what was written about the SLC proclamation.Usually those types of proclamations (celebrating local hero) are for that specific date/year only.
But we can celebrate Nathan any day.![]()
On Wednesday afternoon, before performing in the Stars on Ice tour in West Valley City alongside fellow Olympic veterans, Chen was awarded a proclamation by Salt Lake County Mayor Ben McAdams and council members Michael H. Jensen and Jenny Wilson forever making May 16, “Nathan Chen Day.”

So it does sound as if May 16 is indeed SLC's "Nathan Chen Day" in perpetuity.
I think Nathan much prefers the behind the scenes stuff like coaching, and he's never been that comfortable speaking in public. Vincent, on the other hand, appears to enjoy speaking and therefore might be better suited as a commentator.I wonder if anyone has approached Nathan about commentating skating events. He is so well spoken, I think he'd be great at it.
I've always been impressed by the way Nathan handles himself in interviews and public speaking.I think Nathan much prefers the behind the scenes stuff like coaching, and he's never been that comfortable speaking in public.

Nathan has certainly come a long way from the bashful 10-year-old being interviewed by Andrea Joyce at Nationals!I wonder if anyone has approached Nathan about commentating skating events. He is so well spoken, I think he'd be great at it.
Would love to see Nathan return to Yale for his medical studies!Nathan at Yale. Recently?
