To observe the holiday the Washington County Courthouse, County Recycling Center, Washington City Hall, and the Washington Public Library will all be closed Monday. Garbage pickup will be delayed by one day throughout next week for Washington residents, and Washington County Mini Bus will not operate. Post offices will be closed as well as most banking institutions. American Legion Post 29 will be holding their annual Memorial Day service open to the public at 10:30 a.m. Monday at Washington’s Central Park, with the high school gymnasium as a rain location.
