The Province of Ontario released its Roadmap to Reopen on May 20, 2021, a three-step plan to reopen the province safely and cautiously and gradually lift public health measures. As a result, select outdoor recreational amenities within the City of Owen Sound will be reopened for public use.

On May 22, 2021 at 12:01 a.m., the Harrison Park tennis courts and basketball courts, and the Kiwanis Sk8 & Bike Park will re-open. Sports fields will also reopen; however, no outdoor sports, recreational classes or team sports are permitted.

Outdoor playgrounds and play structures remain open for public use. Parks and trails remain open for passive use. City Boat Launches also remain open for public use.

Users are asked to be mindful of public health guidelines when using any outdoor recreational amenity.
