We strive to keep our parks clean and safe for your health and enjoyment.  Even so, to reduce your chances of exposure to germs or chemicals we encourage you to use general common sense when using our picnic facilities.  We recommend using table coverings, keeping food on plates and in containers, and cleaning hands thoroughly before eating and after direct contact with benches, tables, and other public surfaces.
