Since Good Friday is not a federal holiday and most people are scheduled to work regular hours on that day, most of your businesses around town will be open. However, there are a handful of services and businesses that will be closed this Friday.

Here’s the status of some our local services:

  • City of Huntsville municipal offices are closed 
  • Huntsville Parks & Recreation is closed
  • Huntsville Animal Services closed
