Description

Is there a child/chaperone ratio enforced at this playground? Does anyone feel there should be? During the week, I repeatedly notice two adults bring in a total of 37 children. This happens almost every week day. The same group. They are unable to attend to such a large group. They get very rowdy, and do dangerous things. (Like 5 children climbing up the wrong end of the slide at the same time). In that particular incident one of the kids was inadvertently pushed off the slide and banged his head on the metal post below. Everytime this group arrives I notice many other parents (including myself) are just forced out

I would like to add photos but feel it’s inappropriate to post photos of children without parents consent. Can signage be posted to provide guidelines on what is appropriate use of this playground so it can remain a safe place for children to have fun? I think 2 adults to 37 rowdy kids might be pushing it. if there are no guidelines. Should we consider making some?
