Happy Presidents' Day!

Presidents' Day, formally known as Washington's Birthday, dates back to the year 1800, following the death of President George Washington in 1799. His birthday, on February 22, became a significant day of remembrance.  It is now a federal holiday observed in the United States on the third Monday of February. It is a day to celebrate the nation's visionaries and leaders.

The holiday was formalized in 1879 to honor George Washington, and it was later moved to the third Monday in February as part of the Uniform Monday Holiday Act in 1968. This change aimed to provide workers with more three-day weekends marked by various activities, including historical education events, patriotic ceremonies, and retail sales.

Holiday Office Closure:

Please note our offices will be closed from February 17, 2025, in observance of the President's Day. We will resume regular business hours February 18, 2025.
