Upcoming Geauga Park Closures Starting in November

closed sign FB

Geauga Park District’s Observatory Park will be closed to the public for certain days in November, December and January, and Big Creek Park will be closed two days in December, for the purpose of the Park District’s controlled hunting program.

To ensure safety while the parks are closed, rangers will block public entrance: to Observatory Park on Nov. 21 and 22 for youth gun season and Nov. 30 through Dec. 6 for shotgun season; to Big Creek Park on Dec. 28 and 29 for shotgun season; and to Observatory Park again Jan. 9 through 12 for muzzleloader season.

Controlled hunting has been used since the 2007-08 season to maintain healthy, balanced populations of plants and animals on Park District properties. Time has proven it a viable management tool and a proactive approach to the Park District’s mission. Learn more about the program by clicking here.

All Geauga Park District buildings will also be closed Thanksgiving, the day after Thanksgiving, Christmas Day and New Year’s Day; unscheduled closures are always posted on WKYC and WEWS in Cleveland.
