High Point Parks and Recreation published its holiday operating schedule on December 17, 2025, announcing closures for recreation centers and the Roy B. Culler, Jr. Senior Center on December 24 through December 26 and January 1. The notice also confirmed early closing at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, December 31, and listed specific facilities affected including Blair Park Golf Course and High Point City Lake, information that matters to residents planning holiday activities.
High Point Parks and Recreation issued a holiday operating schedule on December 17, 2025 that lays out closures and adjusted hours for the upcoming holiday period. Recreation centers and the Roy B. Culler, Jr. Senior Center will be closed from December 24 through December 26, and will also be closed on January 1. All recreation centers will close early at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, December 31.
The department identified specific facilities in the notice, including Blair Park Golf Course and High Point City Lake, among those affected by the schedule. The full schedule and guidance for residents are posted at highpointnc.gov/CivicAlerts.aspx. The timing of the announcement gives households, program organizers, and private rental users a window to adjust plans before the Christmas and New Year holidays.
The impacts will be practical and immediate for residents who use city facilities for regular recreation, planned classes, sports leagues, or senior programming. Scheduled bookings, league practices, and group activities that normally occur at city recreation centers will need to be rescheduled or relocated. Seniors who attend the Roy B. Culler, Jr. Senior Center for regular programming should note the closures and seek alternatives for those days.
City departments routinely publish holiday schedules to coordinate staffing and public access, and the posting offers transparency about which services will pause over the holiday period. Residents with ongoing memberships, program registrations, or facility reservations should review the posted guidance and contact Parks and Recreation to confirm status of specific programs or rentals.
For immediate planning, residents should consult the city posting at the link provided to see the complete list of affected facilities and any additional recommendations included in the department notice. Timely review will reduce disruptions to holiday plans and help community organizations that rely on city facilities to adjust schedules.
