Hamilton County Parks has created a list of reopening dates for its park facilities and activities. The schedule reflects the measured approach to reopenings as outlined in Governor Holcomb’s Back on Track multi-staged reopening guidelines.
Park staff are eager to welcome visitors back, but it should be noted that the schedule is subject to change, based on evolving COVID-19 related circumstances and updated directives provided by the governor’s office, the CDC, the county health department and the parks board.
Throughout the reopening phases, visitors to park facilities will be provided onsite and online information regarding interim precautionary measures to be taken to ensure the safety and enjoyment of all guests, park staff and volunteers.
