Aviator Sports Complex is closed today as a result of the shutdown of the federal government, which closed down all national parks — including Gateway National Recreation Area.
Non-essential functions federal government shut down at midnight Oct. 1, when Congress failed to pass a resolution funding its operations. National parks, museums, monuments and the National Zoo are all affected, along with certain functions of federal agencies serving veterans, conducting food inspections and those seeking federally backed mortgages, among others.
