                 City Market is back for the summer season. Auburn Parks and Recreation invites the community,
                 growers and consumers alike, to join us at Town Creek Park every Saturday from May 29th until
                 August 28th from 8-11 AM. The market will host local farmers, growers, and artists to sell their
                 produce and products.
                 Parking will be available for all market attendees in the gravel parking lot across from Town Creek
                 Park.
                 *COVID 19 note: All market visitors must maintain a minimum of 6 feet between one another. All
                 vendors will follow the state sanitation guidelines regarding farmers markets:
                 * Food samples will not be served, and cooking demonstrations will not be allowed.
                 * Vendors will maintain a 10-foot distance from one another.

                 * All available products will be pre-packaged.
                 In order to allow the maximum number of community members to visit the market, loitering and social
                 gatherings will not be permitted. We ask that you please purchase your products and promptly exit
                 the parking lot for others to easily access parking spots. Animals are not allowed near vendor tents.

                Throughout summer 2021, Active Auburn will host several recreation or fitness-centered events to highlight parks, recreation facilities or important areas
                of Auburn. These activities will range from field days and scavenger hunts in the parks to pool days and more!
