To all of our patrons:
We sincerely hope that all of you are well and taking care of yourselves. We miss seeing you at our regular programs, and hearing the children play!

should you have questions during our off hours.
Please know that at this time, the parks are open, but we highly encourage you to be sensible, practice social distancing, and do not touch maps, kiosks, or the playground equipment, and clean your hands before and after being in the park. The playground is roped off and closed. Also note that Hollow Park bathrooms are closed until further notice, and the playground is NOT sanitized, so that too is off limits and is closed off. If you are sick, or if anyone else in your household is sick, or showing any signs of illness to
please stay home
. We must all do our part to prevent the spread of this illness.
Due to the Covid-19 virus and the uncertainty that it brings with it we are unsure of what the next few months might hold for us all. We also realize that people would like to know what their options are should life resume to some sort of normality. Therefore we are listing our Spring and Summer programs and our Brochure on our website on Friday, April 3rd.

You may choose to register or you may chose to wait and see, but this is the information that you will need to make your Spring and Summer plans. Everything is online and available for registration, we will notify you of any changes or cancellations as they become available.
In the meantime, practice social distancing, stay well, and let’s hope to see each other in better times soon!
Thank you for your continued support in keeping Woodbury a clean, happy and beautiful place to live and play! Be kind, check on your neighbors and friends, and help if you can. If you have questions regarding this newsletter, please feel free to call
Sincerely,
