Happy Labor Day from all of us at Capitol Benefits Group!

Our office will be closed on Monday, September 7 in observance of Labor Day. We’ll return to normal business hours on Tuesday, September 8, ready to assist you.

Fun Fact: The first Labor Day celebration was held in New York City in 1882, when thousands of workers marched in a parade before gathering for speeches, food, and festivities. The holiday wouldn’t become a federal holiday until 12 years later, in 1894!

Whether your long weekend includes grilling, traveling, tackling a project, or simply putting your feet up, we hope you enjoy a well-earned break.

Have a safe and happy Labor Day!

Today we’re celebrating the guy who keeps the numbers in line and somehow still manages to keep us smiling! 😄

Happy Birthday, Dan Hitchcock! Thank you for everything you do behind the scenes to keep Capitol Benefits Group running smoothly. We hope your day is filled with laughter, great food, cake (lots of cake 🍰), and maybe even a break from spreadsheets. 😉

Help us wish Dan a fantastic birthday in the comments! 🎈🎉
