This is the Carson Park playground in Eau Claire Wisconsin. It had been taped off and closed up prohibiting children and families from gathering in the park and using the playground equipment. This had been done to keep the spread of the virus from transferring from the playground to the children. There was no posted date for when the playground could reopen.
