Celebrate Memorial Day weekend at Virginia Highlands Park

>> Pre-orders from Mana food truck can be placed before midnight at https://forms.gle/E5pHvZyYa9CkTyhU8. <<

Arlington’s open space is now open in to the public. However, facilities such as courts, playgrounds, dog parks, picnic shelters, and organized sports play are NOT allowed.

The County is asking for the community’s help in maintaining social distancing. “We need the community’s help in practicing safety guidelines so we can keep our parks open, and to allow staff the necessary time to prepare to open even more facilities and programs, when it’s safe to do so,” said Parks & Recreation Director Jane Rudolph. “As long as the community stays safe, we can stay open.”

Monday May 25^th between 11am-4pm

Both the Mana (Hawaiian) and funnel cake food trucks will be at Virginia Highlands Park at the corner of 15th & Joyce Streets near the softball fields for your to-go orders.

Mana has revised their menu and added the MANA Dog as a brand new item debuting for us.

>> Pre-orders can be placed before midnight at https://forms.gle/E5pHvZyYa9CkTyhU8. <<

They allot 5 orders per 15 minutes, so they may adjust the time requested. When they get your order, they will send you an invoice through which you can pay and complete the order. They will be turning off pre-orders at midnight tonight, but will be taking all walk ups tomorrow as well.

 

Safety First!

Park visitors are asked to adhere to the physical distancing and small group guidelines – keep at least six feet of distance from others and groups should not exceed 10 people. Don’t use any closed park amenities. Face masks in public are recommended where proper distancing is not possible. Don’t use parks if you are sick or recently exposed to COVID-19.
