Summerlin closes playgrounds, cancels egg hunt amid COVID-19 concerns

Summerlin playgrounds are closed because of coronavirus concerns, but open spaces remain accessible, according to a community announcement posted online.

Additionally, the annual egg hunt, scheduled for April 4, has been canceled.

“To protect the health and safety of our residents, all classes, reservations and meetings have been suspended beginning March 16,” an online community alert reads. Services will reopen based on recommendations from health officials, according to the statement.

Summerlin Council management is encouraging social distancing for those who go outdoors.

Additionally, swim lesson sign-up day is postponed to April 25. The council said it would work to reschedule Summerlin’s Family Fun Bubble Day.
