CLOSURE FOR SEVERE WEATHER
The safety of program participants is primary concern when determining if programs should be canceled due to icy, or, inclement weather conditions.

Cancellation of evening programs (after 4 p.m.) will be determined by 3 p.m. on each particular day.
On Saturdays and Sundays, information will be available on daytime classes beginning at 8 a.m. and on evening classes beginning at 3 p.m. The Department will issue cancellation announcements on the CPRD Facebook page and rec1 notification system. Whenever possible, program participants will be notified of program cancellations by the CPRD program coordinator or the individual coach. Participants may also contact the Recreation Center where the program will be Held to check on the status of the program.
