DCNR offers pre-Memorial Day guidance on state parks, including Hyner
HARRISBURG, PA – Department of Conservation and Natural Resources Secretary Cindy Adams Dunn Thursday noted that state park swimming pools and beaches will be open this holiday weekend to welcome visitors for the outdoor activities that have been so critical to our well-being during the pandemic.
“We are again pleased to be able to provide opportunities to cool off and have fun for our visitors this summer,” Dunn said. “Pools and swimming beaches provide affordable options for individuals and families across the commonwealth and we hope to see visitors safely recreating at our parks during our warmest months.”
Fifteen state parks, including Hyner, have pools for the public to enjoy and some will be open starting Saturday, May 28. They are typically open from Memorial Day weekend to Labor Day weekend.
