General Tips

- Obey posted speed limits for your safety and that of other park patrons.

- Park in designated areas only. Please do not park along driveways.

- Prevent theft by locking your vehicles. Lock valuables in the trunk or leave them at home. Do not leave your purse or wallet on or under your car seat.

- Parks and playgrounds can be busy. Make sure you watch your children. Do not leave children unattended.

- Please help your pets enjoy their visit to the parks by keeping them on a leash at all times. (Dogs may be unleashed in the Kellogg Dog Field with a permit).

- Guard against sunburn and long-term effects of skin cancer by using a PABA sunscreen or wearing a hat and loose-fitting clothing.

- uring oppressively hot and muggy days, avoid unnecessary exposure to heat and drink plenty of water.


Safe Walking­ and Jogging

- Walk confidently.

- Look people in the eye as you pass them. This lets others know that you are aware of their presence.
