We’ll get through this, together

First off, thank you for all you are doing to keep yourselves and your community safe and healthy.

We wanted to let you know the steps Park People is taking in the immediate term in light of COVID-19.

These include:

• All Park People staff are working from home to minimize risk in our workplace and communities until further notice,
• Postponing or cancelling all Park People hosted group events until April 30th,
• Where possible, using technology to deliver programs, meetings and events remotely.

We encourage your park group to follow Canadian guidelines on social distancing to protect the health of your loved ones and your community.

Please be assured, we will reach out to groups and individuals as quickly as possible to discuss any programs, events or funding impacted by the current situation. Please contact us if you have any questions. We’re here to help.

Thank you for the work you do and for your support and patience at this difficult time.

We’ll get through this together.

Dave Harvey and the whole Park People team.

P.S. We encourage you to read a great article in today’s Globe and Mail about the role parks can play during the pandemic.
