DOG OWNERS- WE DON'T LIKE YOUR DOGS AROUND OUR SMALL CHILDREN. KEEP AWAY.

Pros: -new equipment, unique items -swings -large playground area -something for smaller as well as larger children -lots of seating options for adults, and picnic tables
Cons: -on a hilltop, so it's rather windy -the water fountain is on the other side of the only fenced area, so children have to leave the playground and go near the parking lot to get a drink (?) -it is not fenced on the opposite side, so it is very easy for small children to escape/wander off or get lost in the bushes (?!) -zero accessible shade from trees, so on bright days there's no escape from the sun -no splash pad -and last but definitely the worst, this place was CRAWLING with unleashed dogs (6-7 of them? at least?!) even though there were many small children and a sign outside the gate saying that all dogs, even unleashed ones, do not belong

I appreciate all rubbery surface material for softer landing and the many benches and sitting areas around the edge. There are two picnic tables. There is really no shade yet, maybe the trees will grow in but they could use some of those triangle canopies. But it is new and nicely landscaped...
