Local Schools, Govt. Offices Open On Columbus Day
This Monday is Columbus Day in the United States, but in Bellingham do not expect to get out of school or get free parking.
Bellingham and Whatcom County government offices, libraries and public schools and colleges will be open Monday.
Meter maids will also be on duty in downtown Bellingham looking for illegally parked cars. Mail carriers will not be on duty. Many bank branches will be closed, but WTA buses are running on schedule.
Grocery stores, state liquor stores and the Bellis Fair Mall will all be open.
But it’s a different story on the other side of the border.
Most businesses in Canada will be closed as Canadians celebrate Thanksgiving on Monday.
Heavy traffic is expected near the border as many workers in B.C. have the day off.
