City of Crookston issued the following announcement on May 7.
The Parks & Recreation Department has made a very difficult decision to cancel all of our summer programs and sports team activities (youth and adult). These programs do not allow for safe social distancing with a gathering of 10 people or less at this time and put the participants at risk as well as the instructors, coaches and all involved. Many factors were considered when making this decision. The issue that we faced in every scenario was how can we offer these programs safely. In the end we felt it was in everyone’s best interest to cancel for the summer, although we will continue to explore options going forward. We are planning to have a physical activity or mental challenge each day for youth, Monday through Friday, and will be posting them on our Parks & Recreation FaceBook page. The parks, trails and open spaces can provide opportunities for physical activity while also providing opportunities for health and wellness. Individuals are encouraged to use our parks, trails and open spaces safely as they are able while following current guidance to prevent the spread of Covid-19.
