If you plan to go outside with your mom this weekend, the City of Saskatoon is reminding residents that the provincial Public Health Order is still in effect.

Follow physical distancing guidelines by staying two metres away from anyone who is not a member of your own household or your extended household group to keep yourself and others safe. Gatherings must not be with more than 10 people, inside or outside. Sports fields should not be used for group or organized sports or activities, and play structures remain closed.

The city says they will have Physical Distancing Ambassadors moving throughout Saskatoon’s 200 parks. Ambassadors will be replacing closed signs and tape on playground structures as well as promoting the importance of physical distancing and other necessary restrictions while using outdoor public places.
