Labor Day 2019: What's Open, Closed In Forsyth County

FORSYTH COUNTY, GA — For many of us, Labor Day marks the unofficial end of summer. The kids are back in school, football is back on the television and, if we get lucky, a cool breeze here and there suggests that autumn truly is on its way.

This year, Labor Day is Monday, Sept. 2. Because Labor Day is a federal holiday, it means a day off of work for a lot of people and no school for children. As such, many governments and other services will be shut down for the day.

Here's a look at some of what will be open and what will be closed in Forsyth County on Labor Day:

• Forsyth County government offices will be closed. This includes county offices, the animal shelter, Senior Services, the three recreation centers and the three recycling convenience centers.
• All Forsyth County Library locations will be closed.
• Forsyth County Schools will be closed.
• Municipal offices for Cumming are closed.
• U.S. Postal Service post offices will be closed.
• Most banks will be closed.
• Most Kroger, Publix and other major grocery stores will be open.
• Most restaurants and other consumer-service businesses will be open, but it's worth calling ahead to make sure.
