Dear Park-goers,
In the interest of limiting the spread of the COVID 19 virus, we are closing the playgrounds at all of our parks. Additionally, throughout the state of Washington recreational gatherings are prohibited during this state of emergency. Please avoid activities and facilities that involve shared sports equipment like basketballs, or volleyballs.
Part of what makes the Chelan quality of life so attractive is having easy access to amazing nature, opportunities for essential play, and a wide variety of recreational opportunities. The mental, physical, and societal health benefits of recreation are in even higher demand during these pandemic conditions.
Please follow CDC guidelines on personal hygiene prior to visiting parks or trails. Observe CDC’s minimum recommended social distancing of 6’ from other persons at all times. Avoid contact with unsterilized surfaces and assume that all surfaces are unsterilized. Be prepared for limited access to public restrooms or water fountains, and most importantly do not use parks or trails if you are exhibiting symptoms.
Please do have fun, please do smile at your neighbors, please walk on the beach, cycle, run, fly kites or engage in other healthy activities that are safe for you, your families, friends and fellow community members. Chelan is filled with responsible community members looking out for the safety of everyone, please do your part.
