Juneteenth Holiday Closure - 2023
Town offices and the Spiegel Pittsford Community Center will be closed Monday, June 19 in observance of the State and Federal Juneteenth holiday; the Pittsford Community Library will remain open for regular hours. Juneteenth commemorates the end to slavery and celebrates Black and African American freedom and achievements. It was June 19, 1865, when the news of emancipation came to Texas more than two years after President Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation went into effect on January 1, 1863.
