Parks at Alert Level 3 Step 1

John Gillon from John Gillon - Kaipatiki Local Board

From Wednesday, council playgrounds, basketball courts, skateparks, toilets and other outdoor facilities, will re-open as Auckland enters Level 3 Step 1. However it may take a few days for tape to be removed and hoops to be re-installed. QR codes will be installed at some high-use parks for scanning with the NZ COVID Tracer app.
You can now meet another bubble for a picnic, but please be aware of any local liquorbans!

Please remember this is still Level 3, however with the following changes:
* Your bubble can now meet one other bubble at a time outside, up to a maximum of 10 people from the two bubbles. Eg: You can invite people from another household over for dinner in your backyard, but they cannot enter your house.
* You can travel across Auckland for recreation.
* Early Learning Centres can reopen if they can handle bubbles of up to 10 children.

After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park.
