Sand Springs Parks Department closes playgrounds and most sports, trails and green space remain open

The City of Sand Springs has announced that all playground equipment at City-owned parks will be closed to the public, following similar ordinances from the City of Tulsa and the Tulsa County Parks Department. Parks themselves will remain open, but patrons are only permitted to use the trails and open green space.

Outdoor basketball, volleyball, Gaga ball, tennis, and other sports will not be allowed for the foreseeable future due to the possibility of spreading COVID-19. The skate park will also be closed. The disc golf course will remain open but players are encouraged to play alone or in small groups, and to not share or touch each other’s discs. Public gatherings of 10 or more are not allowed per an executive order from Governor Stitt, and individuals are encouraged to remain six feet apart at all times.
