Effective for visits starting March 2, 2022, face coverings and the vaccine requirement are lifted and visitors will no longer be required to provide proof of vaccination or wear a mask in order to use indoor park facilities.
While face coverings are not required, we strongly recommend that individuals continue to wear face coverings if they are unvaccinated or immunocompromised, or if they are interacting with people that are unvaccinated, including children under the age of five. Additionally, visitors may choose to continue to wear a mask, and we fully encourage and support that decision. All Conservatory staff and volunteers will respect and accept all individual preferences with regard to face coverings.
Thank you!
