COVID-19 safety protocols in effect to protect guests, staff
Posted
Celebrations are back at the Wigwam.
The historic, 440-acre resort at 300 E. Wigwam Blvd. in downtown Litchfield Park, is gearing up for three major celebrations in May that it had to forego last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
For everyone’s safety, restaurant guests are asked to wear masks while walking around restaurants and pool areas. Masks are not required while seated at restaurant tables, while in the pool or while seated at poolside chairs that are distanced from guests not their their party.
