Pickens Rec Department Reopening to the Public

The Board of Commissioners working in consultation with PCRD staff and their advisory
board will reopen PCRD operations to the public in stages. These efforts serve as a balance
between ensuring safety and offering necessary services. The multiphase reopening will include
the following:

 Roper Park remains open (activities must meet health guidelines).
 Summer Camp beginning June 1 st (strict health guidelines in place and limited to 40
kids).
 The Community Center will open to the public beginning June 3 rd . This will allow
PCRD staff two days to start Summer Camp under new health guidelines before
opening the building to the public. Once open the Community Center will operate on
modified hours (M-F 8am to 5pm). These modified hours will allow staff time to
properly clean and sanitize the facility. There will be health guidelines in place
including that participants must bring their own equipment. There will be specific
times set aside for certain activities.
– Walking 8am to 10am
– Pickleball 10am to 12pm
– Open Gym 12pm to 5pm
 The pool will tentatively open on June 15 th (strict health guidelines in place including
bringing your own chair).
 The Community Center will tentatively return to normal operating hours and allow
room rentals and fitness classes beginning June 15 th.

This multiphase reopening will allow our staff to best serve the community in a safe way.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation during these difficult times. We look
forward to seeing you soon at PCRD! If you have any questions call 706-253-8863.
