Today, the Spokane Regional Health District’s Health Officer re-opened playgrounds.

Parks staff are moving around our nearly 90 parks to remove closure tape from play structures. You may still see some tape up, existing signs and swings removed in places we haven’t reached yet with our small team.

Please keep in mind that we don’t routinely sanitize play equipment, picnic tables, and similar amenities, so continue to use CDC precautions to avoid the spread of germs.

We hope you continue to enjoy park spaces!
