All park amenities will be open Friday, May 22 with the exception of the basketball courts at City and Riley Parks and the playgrounds at City and Riley Parks. Playgrounds are tentatively scheduled to open June 14 – subject to future Executive Orders of Governor Holcomb. Basketball courts should reopen when contact sports are once again permitted under the Governor’s Executive Orders.
It is recommended park patrons wear face coverings in public settings, continue to practice social distancing and good hygiene. Beginning May 22 social gatherings of up to 100 people may take place following the CDC social distancing guidelines.
