[ARCHIVED] Usage Changes within the Recreation Department

Rec Notice 3-24-20

Due to an abundance of caution and guidance from local and federal public health officials regarding the coronavirus we have some usage changes within the Recreation Department. In order to protect the health and safety of our residents and employees, the Palos Heights Recreation Center is closed until further notice. All programs have been canceled through at least May 1st as well. 

Playgrounds and restrooms are closed until further notice. The parks grounds and trails will remain open unless otherwise noted. Based on CDC recommendations, we discourage people from congregating in groups of 10 or more people. Please practice social distancing, maintaining distances of at least six feet when feasible. 

If you have questions during the ‘Stay-at-Home’ mandate by Governor Pritzker, Recreation Department staff can be reached through their e-mails or you can leave a voicemail at the Recreation Center at 708-361-1807 and we will respond within 24 hours. Thank you for your understanding and be safe!
