Monday, October 10, 2022, is Columbus Day. The Christopher Columbus Celebration Commission (CBCC) has not yet announced its plans for the day. Typically, the CBCC announces its plans for the day several months in advance. Currently, we do not know if CBCC will be open or closed on this day.
Here is what we do know:
-Columbus Day is a national holiday in the United States.
-It is typically celebrated with parades and festivals.
-Many people have the day off from work and school.
– Stores and businesses may be closed or have limited hours.
The origin of Columbus Day goes back to October 12th 1492, when Christopher Columbus arrived in the Americas. Since then, celebrating his achievements and bridging cultural differences has been a day.
In recent years, some have called for the holiday to be renamed Indigenous Peoples’ Day to acknowledge the negative impacts Columbus and other settlers had on Native American communities.
CBCC has not yet announced their plans for the day, but typically they inform their plans several months in advance. Currently, we do not know if CBCC will be open or closed on this day.
However, we will update this post as soon as we have more information from CBCC.
