The town calendar marks October 12

Blackstone’s official 2026 Town Closings page lists Monday, October 12 as an observed holiday. The record supports a general town-closing notice.

It does not, by itself, state how every department, emergency service, solid-waste route, utility operation or separate county office will operate that day.

Verify the service you actually need

Handle time-sensitive town-office business before the closing when practical. For a pickup, court, library, school, utility or county service, consult that service’s own current notice.

Emergency response is not the same as routine office hours. Do not use a general holiday list as proof that an appointment or deadline moved.

Keep the official fallback route

Save the department’s published contact information and recheck for a later operational notice. If an account or payment is involved, use only the official channel and retain the real confirmation.

Gretna Junction does not process town requests, extend deadlines or promise that a service will reopen at a particular time.
