RECOMMENDATIONS
When spending time outside during COVID-19, please follow these recommendations from Public Health Madison & Dane County:
- Do not use parks or trails if you are sick with symptoms such as fever, cough or shortness of breath.
- Maintain a social distance of at least six feet from people other than your household members.
- Do not play team or contact sports. This includes but is not limited to basketball, ultimate frisbee, soccer, or football since these activities do not meet social distancing requirements. Suggested park activities include but are not limited to walking, biking, fishing, hiking, or running.
- Assume that surfaces could have COVID-19.
- Do not use playground equipment or sports courts. If you must touch any surface within the park such as gates, tables, handles, playground equipment or other common touchpoints, use gloves or a bag over your hand, then wash your hands or use hand sanitizer immediately after.
- Practice good personal hygiene such as washing your hands, carrying your own hand sanitizer and disinfecting wipes, sneezing or coughing into a tissue or the inside of your elbow, avoiding touching your face, etc.
- Avoid public restrooms. Use the restroom before you leave your home.
- Bring your own water or drinks since many public drinking fountains may be disabled and should not be used, even if operable.
- Bring a trash bag with you and take out your own trash.
