Seasonal parks set to close by the end of October

Cooler overnight temperatures means the winterizing of seasonal parks in Prince George.

As of yesterday (Tuesday), all park water fountains will be shut down to protect underground infrastructure and prevent the pipes from freezing.

In addition, the following closures are set to take place in the coming weeks:
