South Suburban to Close
All Facilities to Prevent Coronavirus Spread
South Suburban
Park and Recreation District (SSPRD) will close all facilities tonight, Friday,
March 13, and all golf courses beginning Saturday, March 14, at the conclusion
of regular business hours to prevent the spread of COVID-19. The closure is
expected to stay in place through Friday, March 27, but will be reevaluated on
Thursday, March 19.
At the
recommendation of state and local health organizations, the closure includes
all recreation centers, golf courses, tennis facilities, sports domes,
entertainment and community centers, ice arenas, and the cancelation of all
programs, classes and camps.
The closure
allows SSPRD to deep clean facilities and help prevent the spread of disease.
Please note that South Suburban has zero confirmed cases of COVID-19 at this
time. This closure is being made out of an abundance of caution.
For patrons who
have already signed up for classes, programs or camps, credits will be issued.
Information on credits for programs, classes and camps scheduled during this
time will be sent to registrants in the upcoming days.
Updates will be
available when necessary on ssprd.org.
