I take my grandson to this playground all the time. He loves it. My only grievance is that there is very little shade which makes it almost impossible to enjoy in the summer. The metal becomes dangerously hot. The smoking adults also make the environment less enjoyable. I detest cigarette smoke. There should be signs. You would think people would not smoke around kids but too often people just don’t care. Then today I took my grandson to the park and I had a very bad experience. There was a group of older boys at the park entrance playing with toy guns and climbing all over the entrance which is kind of high and in my opinion could lead to an injury. I asked the kid with the toy gun where his parents were. He let me know that he was 14 years old and didn’t need an adult. I asked the kid if the gun had a projectile. He said no and showed me. I said that he probably shouldn’t have a gun at a public park. At that point I had an adult male tell me to mind my own business. He got in my face and attempted to intimidate me. I let him know that as an adult I have every right to direct kids. I’m an ex veteran, dental hygienist and retired HS teacher. He continued to be aggressive but I wasn’t going to be intimidated. I let him know that he just let these kids know that they didn’t have to listen to adults, especially old ladies and that bullying women is ok. That taking guns to public places is ok. I told him I was calling the police. I then walked over to the slide where the big kids were climbing up the slide backwards so the little kids were screaming because they were being walked over. None of the parents were doing anything. At this point I had had enough. I took my grandson and we left. I won’t go back on a weekend. I’m also calling the park personnel tomorrow. I told the police what was going on but just left since the adult male bully had hauled butt. Very bad experience.
