About local holidays
US federal holidays close banks, government offices and the post but are often regular workdays in private companies. Memorial Day (last Monday of May) kicks off summer, Independence Day (July 4th) marks 1776 with fireworks and cookouts, Labor Day (first Monday of September) closes the season. Thanksgiving (4th Thursday of November) is the year's most-travelled day — turkey, family, football. Martin Luther King Jr. Day in January and Juneteenth (June 19) are newer additions tied to African-American history.
