HEParks & COVID-19
(Updated 2/28/2022)
Mask & Vaccination Requirements – effective 2/28/22
On February 28, 2022, mask and vaccination requirements for Cook County, per the Governor and CCDPH mandates, will become optional for our public patrons. Although masks will not be required indoors at HEParks, we support our patrons who choose to wear one while inside our facilities.
We ask patrons to respect one another’s masking decisions, and we require all patrons to not use any facility or attend any program if displaying symptoms related to COVID-19.
Until further guidance is received, masks are required on all bus transportation.
