SENTENCE COMBINATION, May 14th, 2010

Learning to combine ideas into more complex sentences is an important skill in writing. There are many ways to do this--many possible bonus points! Try to combine the following three sentences.
Sentence 1: Victoria Day is celebrated only in Canada.
Sentence 2: It is always celebrated on the 3rd Monday of May.
Sentence 3: May 18th is the earliest date it can occur; the latest is May 25th.
