The Oregon Parks and Recreation system is slowing reopening some parks while others will remain closed through at least Labor Day.

A release said the department is experiencing reduced levels of service due to a $22 million budget gap. Parks that remain closed include the Umpqua Lighthouse State Park in Douglas County.
