An emergency training exercise for first responders will be held at Beavermead Park from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. on Wednesday, announced by the City of Peterborough.
The training exercise includes Peterborough Paramedics, Peterborough Fire Services, Peterborough Police Service, and City of Peterborough lifeguards who supervise City beaches and wading pools.
Pedestrians are asked to give them space to safely complete their training.
The training exercise will take place on land rather than the water. The beaches at Beavermead Park and Rogers Cove are currently closed by Peterborough Public Health due to suspected harmful algae bloom in the water.
