COVID-19 UPDATE May 26th- 3:00PM
Dear BOPARC Families, Friends and Patrons –
We at BOPARC would first like to thank you for your continued support and understanding during this ongoing difficult time in our community. We have also been appreciative of your patience as we monitored the changing situation related to COVID-19, worked through the Governor’s mandates and communicated with our local health officials regarding summer activities within the BOPARC system. Today, May 26th, we are providing the following updates to our COVID-19 related news:
* BOPARC SUMMER CAMPS: BOPARC Summer Camps will be on hiatus for the summer of 2020. This was a difficult decision and we explored multiple avenues that might allow us to move forward within the draft guidelines recently provided by the West Virginia DHHR. However, due to the nature of our services and the manner in which they are delivered, each scenario we explored led us to conclude that the decision was necessary, as the safety and well-being of our participants and staff are of utmost importance. Please allow 2 to 4 weeks for the processing of registration and payment plan refunds. You should NOT call to receive this refund.
* Baseball/Softball - The Governor recently indicated that if statistical numbers continue to improve, low-contact sports may be able to resume on June 8th. Further guidance will be provided when received.
* BOPARC Summer Concert & Movie Series – Due to a significant reduction in hotel/motel tax funding, this series will not take place in 2020.
* Rental Facilities – Regarding facilities such as pavilions, Dorsey’s Knob Lodge, Marilla Center and the Wiles Hill Community Building, we are taking NOW taking reservations. If you were added to a wait-list, you will be called in the order received. Reservations can be made by calling the BOPARC Administrative Office at 304-296-8356.
* Rail-Trail - The Rail-Trail system is open. Please maintain social distancing.
*Parks/Playgrounds – Parks are open. Playgrounds and public restrooms remain closed. Please adhere to social distancing guidelines when utilizing your parks. This includes courts, Marilla skate park and dog parks.
