CME Labor Day?

Can someone help me understand this schedule?

It doesn't say anything about how the ags (grains, livestock) will be trading on Monday. Is it closing for 3-4 hours similar to NYMEX + equity products?

Electronic sessions trade Sunday night, but close at 10:30am Central on Labor day. No pit-session trade.

I read more carefully. It says CBOT grains and livestocks are not opening at all Sunday, and closed until Monday afternoon.

grains and livestock are always closed on holidays

Yes, every holiday is presented this way on CME website. Grains and Livestock don't open for a few hours like equity indexes, treasuries and energy.
