PPPA – WEEKLY EMAIL BLAST

In this week's blast: 

   COVID-19 LEVEL RED RESPONSE FROM PARKS, RECREATION AND CULTURAL SERVICES

As of Friday, November 27, 2020, PRCS made changes following the move to Level Red in El Paso County.  There are numerous changes but the one that affects the use of pickleball courts is:

“Parks, trails, open spaces, outdoor playgrounds and sport courts remain open for use. Interaction in these areas should be limited to those within your household and 6 feet of physical distancing should be maintained between groups.”

Pickleball courts will remain open but, to keep everyone safe, PRCS is restricting play to only members of your own household.

You can read all the changes here.
