ALL Parks are closed at this time

To reduce the spread of COVID-19 all parks are currently closed. This is consistent with the decision by the Province of Nova Scotia to close all provincial parks, all municipal parks, beaches, playgrounds, sports fields / courts, and trails. Declaration can be found here

That includes some of our favorite parks like Shubie Park, Lock 5 Park and Lock 6 Park.

**Lock 4 is open as a residential pathway.

Let’s continue to work together as a community, our beautiful parks will be there to greet us when it’s safe!

Stay healthy!
