COBB COUNTY — Cobb County will reopen trails and “passive” parks in the county beginning this weekend.
Effective Saturday, April 25, the county will open the Silver Comet Trail, Noonday Creek Trail, Bob Callen Trail and other parks.
The “passive parks” are those without amenities like playgrounds, ballparks, soccer fields, or tennis centers. The passive parks allow for more social distancing under public health guidelines.
The Silver Comet Trail was previously closed in March, but we found people who continued to use it despite county orders.
The county says people who use the facilities and trails are required to adhere to social distancing guidelines and wear masks.
