Does anyone have a list of USVI Government Holidays for 2008? I found this list for 2007, http://www.here.vi/Wedding/Holidays/holidays.html and I was wondering if someone could update it. Are the holiday dates the same on STX and STT and STJ?
Thanks.

Yes they are observed on each island. In some cases there is bigger celebration for a particular holiday on one island. For example there is a large group of residents with ties to Puerto Rico on St. Croix so the USVI-Puerto Rico friendship day has more things happening for that on St. Croix.

Thanks very much. I'll know what to watch out for this year.
