Hale Reservation, which was featured on a recent Hometown Weekly front page as a preferred social distancing locale, has temporarily shut down its roads and parking lots.
"In consultation with the Board of Health, we determined that it is in our community’s best interest to join fellow organizations in closing our roads and parking lots, effective tomorrow, Friday, March 27," wrote Executive Director Eric Arnold. "Please do not drive to Hale this weekend. Also know that visitors who illegally park on roads in Westwood and Dover may be subject to ticketing and fines. Trails may still be accessed on foot and by bicycle."
"This weekend, we will assess whether it’s feasible to reopen our roads and parking lots as use patterns permit. In the coming weeks, we will update the status of road and parking lot access on Hale's homepage." Visitors are reminded that illegal parking on roads in Westwood and Dover may be subject to ticketing.
Visitors to Sen-Ki are also reminded that the property does not allow mountain bikers or dog walkers.
While Hale’s physical office is closed, Hale remains open for business, with the staff working remotely. Further information may be found at www.hale1918.org.
