Century Employees Get Veterans Day Off For The First Time

November 11, 2013

Monday marked the first Veterans Day that  Town of Century employees had the day off.

While virtually every other governmental agency in the area has always been closed on the Veterans Day holiday, the Town of Century was always open. Back in August, the Century Town Council voted to close up shop on Veterans Day and grant town employees the day off.

At that  August meeting, the town council also voted to hold a Veterans Day celebration which took place last Friday.
