Dauphin Rec Services have re-opened their playgrounds in the city.
Programs & Promotions Coordinator with Dauphin Rec, Tamara Kolida says after reviewing the current code red public health orders and consulting our local public health officer, playgrounds were approved to open.
“So we got the go-ahead to open all the city parks and playgrounds so we’re super excited about that. We just hope people obviously stick to the current public health orders. Only go with people from your household so that we can do our part in preventing COVID.”
She adds that although parks are now open, it’s important to stay vigilant to public health orders.
“Social distance. If you see another family there maybe stay on the other side of the playground. We have lots of playgrounds in the city. We’re just hoping that people follow the rules and keep their distance from others outside of their household.”
Manitoba’s code red restrictions prohibit people to gather in groups larger than 5.
