Parks and Recreation Opportunities
The Parks and Recreation Department has resumed some in-person programs, including swimming lessons, dance and fitness classes, and athletic programs and leagues. In-person offerings follow guidance from the Minnesota Department of Health and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The department also continues to offer virtual recreation programming. With the new Connect to Rec initiative, the Parks and Recreation Department offers ways for residents to engage in virtual programs such as art classes, adult fitness, educational opportunities, dance, Zumba classes and more. Residents can also sign up to receive Connect to Rec Kits, which provide supplies for interactive programming such as gardening, fishing, bird watching and more.
The new Summer Park All Day Program is underway and offers children ages 5-10 the opportunity to enjoy the summer at Plymouth parks. Available 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday, the program is held at five park locations in the city. Parents can register for individual weeks or for the entire program, which runs through Aug. 14.
City Facilities
While city facilities have not fully reopened to the public, all departments continue to provide services. Many in-person services are available by appointment at City Hall – to learn more, visit plymouthmn.gov/appointment.
The Plymouth Ice Center and the Plymouth Creek Center have also begun initial reopening procedures with limited facility availability – offering ice time by reservation and hosting weddings at the Millennium Garden.
More Information
Though some services are available by appointment, residents and customers are encouraged to conduct business by phone or online, including utility billing, recreation registration and some online building permits.
The city will continue to evaluate facility closures and event cancellations on an ongoing basis. For up-to-date information, a comprehensive list of closures and cancellations, and available resources, visit plymouthmn.gov/coronavirus.
