Dear Parks Guests,
As the situation surrounding the coronavirus (COVID-19) evolves, the Los Angeles County Department of Parks and Recreation (LA County Parks) is providing an update on changes to programming, events, and facility usage.
We continue to prioritize the health and safety of our program participants, park guests, team members, and community. We are working closely with the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health (Public Health) to ensure that our Parks community receives credible information and guidance during this challenging time.
Out of an abundance of caution and in accordance with guidance from State and local health officials to prevent the spread of COVID-19, LA County Parks is implementing following changes effective as of March 13, 2020, at 5:00 p.m. through March 31, 2020:
We know that you rely on our programs as consistent and crucial resources. We appreciate your support and understanding as we adapt to this fluid situation. We continue to assess daily operations and consult with local health officials, which may require further changes.
We encourage you to visit the Public Health website for information and guidance, available in multiple languages, on COVID-19. We also strongly encourage you to take everyday actions to prevent the spread of germs.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact (626) 588-5364 or info@parks.lacounty.gov.
Sincerely,
John Wicker
Director
