At this time all municipal summer programs are cancelled. If public health restrictions are lifted early enough that some programming can be provided, updates will be shared as soon they are available.
Several municipal recreation facilities are operated by community groups and not by municipal staff. All are currently closed and programming suspended. As restrictions are lifted these facilities will provide information on their programming.
