As indicated in the June 19th press release about King’s plans for entering Stage 2 King Township is “focusing ownship its efforts on reopening some of its outdoor recreational amenities only.” Read the press release for details as to when splash pads, skateboard parks, shade shelters will open and when outdoor recreational team sports can begin. As reviewed in the press release it is very necessary to continue being cautious as the virus has not been eliminated; accordingly, some amenities are still closed e.g. play structures. And, it continues to be important to maintain 2 m distance from those not in your immediate family and to continue handwashing with soap. Check in with King’s COVID-19 info hub for updates.
I am very glad that ths splash pads will be opened. To my mind, they are safe enough because the kids don’t stay in them long, as they are so cold, but they do a wonderful job of cooling kids down. Also glad that the shade shelters will be open so that the parents and grandparents have a cool place to be while the kids are in the splash pad.
