Dick's Sporting Goods joins other retailers closing on Thanksgiving
Dick’s Sporting Goods joined a growing number of retailers that will be closed on Thanksgiving.
The Findlay-based national chain announced Monday that all of its stores, including Dick’s, Field & Stream and Golf Galaxy, would be closed for the holiday.
“We are so thankful to our teammates for their hard work and dedication,” chairman and CEO Ed Stack said in a news release. “They have navigated this year with strength, commitment and care for each other and for our customers. We will continue to do all we can to support them and show our gratitude.”
Earlier Monday, Target joined the ranks of stores announcing it wouldn’t open on Thanksgiving.
“This year more than ever, a joyful holiday will be inseparable from a safe one,” Target CEO Brian Cornell said in a news release, “and we’re continuing to adjust our plans to deliver ease, value and the joy of the season in a way that only Target can.”
Last week, Walmart Inc. announced that its namesake stores as well as its Sam’s Club warehouses would be closed on Thanksgiving.
