See www.BocaChicaBeach.net/links.html, Category DR Specific Sites. There, you will find Holidays in the Dominican Republic - http://www.holidayfestival.com/DominicanRepublic.html.

thanks for the quick response.

Rest of 2001:
By Law 139-97 of 19 June 1997, and published in the Official Gazette # 9957 of 25 June, 1997, and according to this law, for 2001 we have the following--
June 14 Corpus Cristi-Thursday
16 August, Day of the Restauration of the Republic, moved to 20 August, a Monday.
24 Sept, Our Lady of Mercy, Patron of the DR, falls on a Monday, no problem.
6 Nov. is Constitution Day, falls on a tuesday so it will be moved back to Monday 5 November.
25 December, will be a tuesday but not changed...

There you go! Have fun..
