Columbus Day is Monday, October 10, 2022. It is a federal holiday but not a state holiday. What this means is that non-essential federal government offices are closed and every federal government employee is paid for the holiday. The U.S. government recognizes 12 federal holidays: 11 annually and Inauguration Day every four years.
The State of South Carolina does not recognize Columbus Day as a state holiday. Therefore, some businesses that are normally closed on a federal holiday may or may not be open. You should check with your local bank, credit union, school, etc. Some will be closed on October 10, 2022, and others will not.
The local holiday hours are as follows:
- SIPOA offices will be open Monday, October 10, with normal hours.
- Town of Seabrook Island offices will be open on Monday, October 10, with normal hours.
- Vincent’s Pharmacy will be open Monday, October 10, with normal hours.
- Post and Computer Center will be open Monday, October 10, with normal hours.
- Harris Teeter will be open Monday, October 10, with normal hours.
