Love Our Parks by Respecting Winter Field Closures
Sports fields at our City parks are now closed for the winter to give them time for maintenance and recovery. More than 20 local sports clubs, with 3,500 players and a steady stream of visiting teams, use our sports fields seven days a week for eight to ten months of the year. Using our playing fields when they are closed, especially when they are wet and muddy, can cause considerable damage. Field closure signs are currently being posted at all City sports fields. Please respect these closures so that our fields remain in excellent condition. The drinking fountains are also temporarily turned off to prevent the pipes from freezing. LEARN MORE
