The Port of Hood River is once again making changes to operations of its recreation facilities after another weekend of crowded facilities where social distancing was not observed. The Nichols Basin Dock is now closed to the public, and Marina Beach is closed to all kiteboarding activities while picnickers and family groups are urged to stay spread out and comply with state masking requirements. Frog Beach will remain open, but users are urged to spread out there as well. On weekends the Event Site parking lot will be open to annual pass holders only, and will close if overcrowding on the beach occurs. Lot 1 is closed to all vehicle parking, and the entire east side curb of North 1st Street will be closed to parking on weekends. The City-owned Waterfront Park is open, but social distancing needs to be maintained and the playground area is closed.
