What’s Closed on Columbus Day in Central Minnesota

WHAT'S OPEN AND WHAT' CLOSED ON COLUMBUS DAY

On the second Monday of October, we celebrate two holidays. Columbus Day, which recognizes Christopher Columbus's discovery of America, AND the people who already lived here!  Joe Biden made the holiday official back in 2021 and that is Indigenous People Day.

All those plans of putting your bills in the mail today, or the packages that you wanted to send out to reach your Great Nephew in Florida? I think your best bet would be to forget about delivering those packages until tomorrow.
