SD&G – The Civic holiday Monday (Aug. 7, 2023) will have a few closures across the region.
There won’t be as many though because the August holiday is not a statutory holiday under the Ontario Retail Business Holidays Act.
Some retail stores will be open though it’s probably best to phone ahead to make sure. The Cornwall Walmart is open Monday 7 a.m. to 11 p.m.
Municipal government offices will be closed in Cornwall and SD&G, as are banks and other government offices.
Canada Post is closed and there’s no mail delivery.
Cornwall Square is open 11 a.m until 5 p.m. for the Civic holiday.
Garbage and recycling in Cornwall won’t be picked up on Monday – it will be done Tuesday. Collection for the remainder of the week will be delayed by one day. The city landfill is also closed Monday.
Cornwall Transit is not running and the office is closed.
The Aquatic Center will only be open for swims from 6 p.m. to 7:25 p.m. Outdoor pools and splash pads are open.
The Benson Center is open for regular programming.
The Cornwall Civic Complex is closed.
The Cornwall Public Library and the SD&G County Library system will be closed.
All LCBO locations in Cornwall and the surrounding region are closed Monday. The Sydney Street Beer Store is the only location open in the area, from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.
