* State of Wisconsin officials have banned access to public playground equipment as public health officials continue to stem the outbreak of COVID-19. Contact sports such as basketball, soccer, or football may not be played on public property. The rules are part of a larger "safer at home" order designed to slow the spread of the potentially dangerous virus. Residents still may use the parks for solo recreational activities such as walking, hiking, flying kites, etc.
