Context
October in the United States
October includes Columbus Day on the second Monday. The federal holiday keeps that name, but many states, cities, and schools observe the same day as Indigenous Peoples' Day. Halloween on October 31 is not a public holiday, yet it shapes school events and family plans at the end of the month. It is a full working month for most offices.
Behind the dates
- Columbus Day
- Commemorates Christopher Columbus's arrival in the Americas in 1492 and falls on the second Monday of October. Many states and cities observe the same day as Indigenous Peoples' Day instead.

Printing
Printing tips
- Choose A4 outside North America and Letter in the United States and Canada; the two layouts are otherwise identical, with the same generous margins.
- In the print dialog, set the scale to 100% or "Actual size". "Fit to page" quietly shrinks the grid and softens the lines.
- Portrait is the classic wall format; landscape gives each day a wider box if you write big or plan in two colors.
- For a wall calendar that stays flat, print on heavier paper, around 160 to 200 gsm.

Planning
Planning notes for October 2027
- The first working day of October 2027 is Friday, October 1, and the last is Friday, October 29.
- Saturday, October 9 to Monday, October 11 is a three-day weekend (Columbus Day).
- Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays appear five times this month and the other days four times, so a weekly class, trash day, or payment that falls on one of them comes around once more than usual.
