Friends, 

We are continuing to work for you, but tomorrow at 830 is our County Board meeting, so I am preparing and will make this short.

First, Parks, fields, playgrounds, dog parks, courts and trails remain open for self-directed recreation and leisure. While our outdoor facilities are open, patrons should still follow Centers for Disease Control and Prevention health safety guidelines while outside as well:

  • Practice social distancing by maintaining six feet of personal space
  • Wash your hands often or use hand sanitizer
  • Sneeze and cough into a napkin or elbow.
  • If you plan on touching equipment, wipe it down with disinfectant wipes before and after use.
We need you to be vigilant about safety when you go outdoors too!!
