PLAYGROUND RAIN POLICY

Most playground sites will close if significant rain or thundershowers occur. Parents are responsible for picking up their children in the event of rain. If rain occurs on a morning before sites open, closings will occur on a site-to-site basis. Site closings are determined by; the amount of rain, the condition of the site, and the facilities available at each site. All morning closings will be determined by 10:15 a.m. If the site is to open in the afternoon, this will be determined by 12:30 p.m.
