Water is now on at spraygrounds in Beckley Creek and Broad Run parks. Both spraygrounds are adjacent to playgrounds featuring accessible equipment for children of all ages.
Prior to visiting The Parklands, caregivers should take note of the following safety tips:
- Please do not use equipment if you or your child have a fever or any symptoms of COVID-19.
- Playground users should wear a mask or face covering and maintain at least six feet of distance between each child and adult not in the same household. Sprayground users should wear masks when not in the water.
- Equipment is not cleaned and sanitized daily. Families use equipment at their own risk.
- Crowds are strongly discouraged during the COVID-19 pandemic. If the number of people gathered in a location makes you uncomfortable, please find an alternate playground and sprayground or come back at a later time.
All caregivers should help children follow the posted guidelines. Each family should use their own discretion when deciding whether or not to use amenities in The Parklands. If the number of people present makes you uncomfortable, consider hiking a nearby trail and returning at a later time. Many of The Parklands trails are easy and accessible to all, including small children. Maps with more trail information, including routes, mileage, and level of difficulty can be found at park trailheads and kiosks or online before your visit at www.theparklands.org.
The Parklands is closely following developments and guidance regarding the ongoing pandemic, and we will update our response as needed. View the latest news and information at www.theparklands.org.
