City of Hendersonville Government: Facilities During Safer at Home Phase 2 May 26, 2020

With state restrictions beginning to ease during the Safer at Home Phase 2 order, the City of Hendersonville is able to grant additional in-person access to some City facilities and services.

Visitors to any City facility or park are advised to follow the recommended public health guidelines. Remember the 3 Ws:

1) Wear a cloth face covering

2) Wait 6 feet apart and avoid close contact

3) Wash your hands often or use hand sanitizer

It is important for people who are sick to continue to stay home. High-risk individuals are urged to stay home and travel only for essential purposes.
