Hellertown Borough and Bethlehem are among local municipalities opening up outdoor activities, such as playgrounds and ball courts, now that Northampton County has entered the yellow phase of reopening.
There are many things we can't safely do because of the ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, however spending time outside is generally still OK, as long as social distancing is maintained.
Due to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic the Borough of Hellertown announced Saturday that all borough playgrounds are closed until further notice, effective immediately.
