New Castle, DE – New Castle County Executive Matt Meyer announced today that due to lack of social distancing in New Castle County parks and on the guidance of the USTA, County public works and parks officials will close all tennis courts, as well as lock fenced in dog parks, and skate parks in New Castle County parks.
