How to Read Coxsackie's 2026 Visitation Calendar: Names, Red Dates, and Special Markers

Look for the official document titled

On Coxsackie’s schedule, weekend visitation is organized by the first letter of the incarcerated person’s last name. Instead of listing individual names, the calendar groups last names into two ranges - A–L and M–Z - so you can quickly see which weekends apply to your loved one. That’s why you’ll see “A-L” or “M-Z” printed directly in certain weekend date boxes. Those labels tell you which last-name group can visit on that day. If your loved one’s last name begins with a letter in A through L, you’ll focus on the dates marked “A-L.” If it starts with M through Z, you’ll plan around the “M-Z” dates.

Holidays on the schedule are printed in red, so they stand out at a glance when you’re scanning the month. You’ll also notice that some dates have an asterisk (*) next to the number. On this calendar, the asterisk is used as a holiday-related or other special marker - so when you see it, slow down and treat that day as “different than a normal day” while you’re planning.

• ✓ *4 (July)
• ✓ *11 (November)
• ✓ *19 (January)
• ✓ *25 (December)
• ✓ *26 (November)

Try reading June 2026 as a quick practice run. On June 6, 2026, the calendar shows “A-L,” meaning that date is assigned to the A–L last-name group. The very next weekend, June 13, 2026, is labeled “M-Z,” which switches the eligible group for that weekend. When you’re checking your own weekend, you’re basically doing the same thing: find the date you want, read the A–L or M–Z label in that weekend box, and then make sure nothing else (like a red holiday date or an asterisk) changes how you should think about that day.

1. Find the month you’re planning for - start on the monthly grid so you’re looking at the right weekend.
2. Locate the weekend date you want - Coxsackie marks weekend visitation days right in the date boxes.
3. Read the A–L or M–Z label - for example, June 6, 2026 is marked “A-L,” while June 13, 2026 is marked “M-Z.”
4. Check for red text or an asterisk (*) - holidays are printed in red, and some dates also have an asterisk (for example, *11 in November and *26 in November), which signals a holiday-related or other special marker.

If you’re downloading or printing a copy, look for the file titled “Coxsackie Correctional Facility Visitation Schedule 2026” and confirm it’s labeled “v.12/2025.” For printing, a clean black-and-white print usually works fine for the A–L / M–Z labels, but remember that holidays are shown in red - so color printing (or double-checking starred dates) can make holiday planning easier.
