Martin Luther King Jr. Park

:: IMPORTANT PARK GUIDELINE INFORMATION ::

UPDATE: JULY 14, 2020 - Per the Governor's executive order, the gathering rule is now limited to 25 people or less (with social distancing being practiced). The 25-person limitation applies only to purely social gatherings. It does not apply to any activity, business, or entity that has been deemed essential, such as religious services, weddings, or group meetings, conferences, or other special events held for essential businesses and operations (as defined by Executive Order 9-20, as amended). Such meetings, conferences, or other special events will need to plan for social distancing between attendees based on CDC recommendations. **Please note that casual and social gatherings such as, but not limited to: family reunions, picnics, etc. are not permitted for groups of over 25 people in attendance.

Please bring Clorox or other sanitizing wipes with you to disinfect the tables/seats prior to use. Due to reduced staff at this time, we are unable to ensure sanitation between uses.

The restrooms, playgrounds, basketball court and volleyball courts at War Memorial Park are open for use. When using the playground equipment, we strongly recommend washing your hands and/or using hand sanitizer BEFORE and AFTER use of the equipment. Until further notice, the water fountains are still not available.

Rental is for all-day use (parks hours).

**NOTE*** Reservations can only be made in-person at our Administrative Office or online by using the button below. Full payment is due at the time of reservation. November-March pavilions are available for use on a first come, first use basis and are not reserved.

REFUNDS: If you cancel 60 days or less prior to your event, the full payment made is forfeited and no refund is available for any reason. NO RAIN DATES. **COVID-19 SPECIFIC: Any pavilion reservations paid for on or after June 1, 2020 are doing so with the understanding that pavilion use is permitted with whatever restrictions that are in place due to the impact of COVID-19 at the time of booking and/or at the time your reservation is scheduled to occur and those restrictions and guidelines are to be followed, as they are ordered by the Governor of West Virginia and by our local health department.
