Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner says he is leaving the city's 300 parks open, except for playgrounds as well as basketball and volleyball courts. Turner wants you to observe social distancing while you're enjoying the great outdoors (i.e., not inside your home) and stay at least 6 feet away from fellow walkers and runners. The city says it will close them if social distancing measures are ignored.
