Crews put sports fields to bed and close public washrooms for winter

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Thursday, Oct. 20, 2022

With shorter days and cooler temperatures, City crews are getting West Kelowna’s parks ready for winter starting with the higher elevation locations and working their way down towards the lake.

The City will close most fields and parks washrooms by Monday, Oct. 31 except for Rosewood Sports Field on McDougall Road, which will remain open through the third week of November to accommodate youth football season.

The all-season washrooms at Willow Beach will also remain open for parks and trails users along the popular Gellatly Bay multi-use corridor.

Playgrounds remain open year-round.

The community will be updated in the spring, when crews are ready to re-open our outdoor sports amenities and seasonal washrooms.
