Historically, we have only closed for major holidays such as Christmas, Fourth of July, Thanksgiving, Memorial Day, etc... However, we are evaluating whether to adjust our schedule to align with other local municipalities. For example, Clare County and Hayes Township both closed for Presidents Day, and will close for MLK day, Juneteenth, and Veterans day and we do not close for any of those. However, we do close for Good Friday and Deer Day, which they do not. Would you be able to provide a list of holidays that the Village of Farwell closes for? Thanks!
