Since the Province introduced
the reopening framework last week, the Village has been
thoughtfully developing our own local 'return to service' framework
for municipal facilities, including parks and the Municipal
Hall.
Starting on Tuesday, May 19th,
the following facilities will be open:
- Pemberton Skatepark
- All municipal playgrounds (with the
exception of the natural playscape at the Pemberton & District
Community Centre)
- Tennis Court at the Creekside
Complex
On Monday, May 25th, the
following facilities will be open:
- Municipal Hall (please note, that only
person will be permitted into the reception area at a
time. While waiting, please be sure to maintain physical
distancing from others waiting to come into the Village
Office).
Given that Pemberton &
District Community Centre (including the natural playscape and
waterpark) is part of the Phase 3 Provincial Framework, the
facility itself will not be opening during this upcoming
phase. However, the Community Centre continues to offer a
great selection of online programming. Be sure to
visit www.pembertonrecreation.ca to view available adult and child
offerings. Please be assured that the Recreation team is working
hard to develop a programming and facilities plan that aligns with
guidance from the BC Recreation & Parks Association and
Provincial guidelines.
The Pemberton & District
Public Library is also working on a phased return to service
plan. There will be more news on this next
week. The Library does continue to offer services such
as virtual storytime, contactless pick-up of library books and
contactless printing. For more information
visit https://pemberton.bc.libraries.coop/ and follow the Pemberton &
District Public Library Facebook page at @Pembertonlibrary for
up-to-date information on their phased return to service
plan.
We are so grateful for your
patience while we determine how we can best serve the community
while keeping safety top of mind.
