The Woodbury Commons Premium Outlet (a Simon Property) will be opening at 9 am on Thanksgiving Day (11/26/2015) & will remain open until 10 pm on Black Friday (11/27/2015).

I'm sure that on Thanksgiving, Mr. Simon will be sitting down to a nice meal surrounded by his family & friends. While countless families with loved ones who work at the Woodbury Commons, will have an empty space at their table because their loved one is mandated to work that day so the Mr. Simons can pad his pockets, by forcing the Woodbury Commons to open on this national holiday.

Like countless others, I have a loved one who works at the Woodbury Commons. We have told our family that we need to host Thanksgiving this year, since we know that our family member will need to work on Thanksgiving Day. My invitations said "Due to "Jane" needing to work on Thanksgiving, we will be hosting dinner. I can't give you a time yet until I know what time she will be working. I will let you know what time dinner will be served as soon as "Jane's" store puts together the Thanksgiving Day schedule. Unfortunately this may not be until the week prior. Thank you for understanding"

Mr. Simon, is your family's Thanksgiving dinner up in the air because your not sure what time someone will need to work? I think not. I have family members who are Police Officers and others who work in hospitals (essential workers) & it's understandable that they have to work on a National Holiday. Someone who works in "retail" shouldn't be mandated to work Thanksgiving Day due to pure greed.

With that being said, I ask you to re-consider & to please close the Woodbury Commons on Thanksgiving Day!!!
