The kids are out of school, but it's a "teacher workday". I think a lot of public offices are closed, though.

We don't have it anymore- we have Indigenous People's Day, which I like. Also, yes, it's a public holiday.

I'm in CA, too. I remember we used to get the day off school, but now we get Cesar Chavez Day off instead.

Our daycare is closed, but neither Hubs or I have the day off. Hubs is taking a vacation day to stay home with Xander.

Most private employers don't have the day off. We used to, but now it's a floating holiday which I much prefer!

School is closed. Not sure if DH has off, but he will be headed out of town for business anyway.

@mrs. tictactoe: LO's EI teacher says she has to cancel because of Columbus Day. Weird!

My husband has off because he works at a school. But Wall Street is open so I have to work :(.

@meganmp: hello, neighbor! (I'm assuming you live near me because I was just about to write the very same thing )

Schools are closed so I'm off, but DH is working. It's so weird, I've never lived in a state where schools were closed on Columbus day.

I get the day off because I work for a bank, but I don't know anyone else who has it off. I'm using the day to go to an eye doctors appointment.

The other Washington (DC) has also retaken it as Indigenous People's Day. However, Monday is my regular day off, so, it is a float holiday for me.

@Mamaof2: Yup. Federal Gov calls it Columbus Day, but, DC City Gov calls is Indigenous People's Day.
