The City of Swift Current and Community Services are currently working with the Government of Saskatchewan and the Business Response Team on the latest COVID-19 requirements for community recreational facilities. Continued facility protocols will be developed based on the parameters of the guidelines, including what indoor recreational opportunities will be available to the public.
Currently, City facilities will stay open and operate under the following restrictions:
