On July 27, 2021, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) updated its COVID-19 guidance in light of the rapidly spreading COVID-19 Delta variant across the country. The Delta variant appears to be more transmissible than other variants, and, most importantly, appears to be transmissible even from individuals who are fully vaccinated.

Though Lake County currently has moderate transmission rates, the Park District is working closely with the county, state, and local authorities. And, we will take immediate action should transmission rates increase to substantial or high in our areas, or stricter guidance comes from the Illinois Department of Public Health. As always, your health and safety are our top priority, and we will keep you updated as the situation evolves.
