The moisture content readings are taken on Tuesdays and Fridays to give an indication of how the fields are progressing and they help council staff utilise data to make final decisions on opening and closing fields. - Hiring

Dogs are welcome in the park but are not permitted on the sports fields when organised sport is being played, or within 10 metres of children’s play equipment. Dogs must be kept on a leash in bushland areas.
