Holiday Monday is expected to be a quiet day for business in Steinbach.

Linda Peters is Executive Director with Steinbach Chamber of Commerce. She says Thanksgiving Day is a Statutory Holiday and that means most businesses will be closed as per regular Sunday shopping guidelines.

"You will see very much what you would see on a Sunday," explains Peters. "Restaurants and gas stations, convenience stores they will all be open, but most of the other businesses will be closed."

That means grocery stores will be closed, as will the Jake Epp Library and Steinbach Aquatic Centre. The Steinbach Fly-In Golf Course is expected to be open as will be Shoppers Drug Mart.

"It sounds like a fabulous weekend coming up weather wise," notes Peters. "Hopefully people can enjoy the outdoors, walking paths, bike rides all those kinds of things."
