Columbus Day traditionally is a federal holiday recognized by most
U.S. banks, including Hibernia. In addition, the bank has re-opened
a branch in Lake Charles, La. - the first Hibernia branch to open
in that market following Hurricane Rita - at 3225 Ryan St. with
hours of 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. "In the aftermath of two destructive
hurricanes along the Gulf Coast, customers are working hard to
restore their businesses and re-establish a sense of normalcy in
their personal lives," said Paul Bonitatibus, president of consumer

time, so we're opening our offices on Columbus Day to serve them."
