Columbus Day is October 8th, next Monday.
Yup, folks. Make some plans for next weekend because it's a three day holiday. Columbus Day arrives on October 8th this year, super early. And that means Macy's and other stores will be holding Columbus Day Sales, there'll be a Columbus Day Parade in Manhattan and the kids have a three day weekend, with no school on Monday.
