Social Distancing in Public Parks and Trails March 21, 200

Lower Makefield Township is doing its part to help prevent the spread of the COVID-19 Corona Virus. Following the guidance of our National, State and Local government we are promoting social distancing. We have closed athletic fields, tennis, picklelball, volleyball and basketball courts by removing rims and nets and locked any fenced in area. We do understand that park space is essential to health and wellness so we promote use in a safe way. Please use the following guidance when using parks and open space. Any group of people using parks outside of these limitations will be asked to leave or separate by the LMTPD.
