Members of the public are also requested to refrain from the use of boats on the river system until further notice. Hidden debris and ice may still be present causing hazardous conditions.
Parents and teachers are urged to warn children of the dangers of playing in or near bodies of water, such as rivers, storm water retention ponds (man-made lakes), creeks, streams, and ditches.
PLEASE BE SAFE.
