The Town of Happy Valley-Goose Bay Department of Community Services & Recreation is pleased to advise residents that Kinsmen Park is now open throughout the holiday season for snowshoeing and walking activities.
The response has been overwhelming, so we have decided that effective Tuesday, December 8, 2020, the hours of access be:
Mondays to Sundays from 10:00 AM to 9:00 PM
To make the holidays a little brighter, the Department of Community Services & Recreation has been busy decorating to give the facility a truly festive spirit.
Access to Kinsmen Park will be from the parking lot only, and washroom facilities are not available at Kinsmen Park. Please practice physical distancing at all times when accessing the facility.
Residents are advised that all playground equipment located in Kinsmen Park is CLOSED to the public in the interest of health & safety. Staff will be installing applicable barricades to discourage access to playground equipment.
