The U.S. Forest Service has put out bids to buy equipment for a new playground at the Piney Campground in TN. According to the specs all the equipment must have “appropriate standard safety circles and fall zones.”
They want “3 slides, 2 climber or rock walls, 2 panels, 2 connector/crawl tunnels and 2 bridges…a minimum of the following items: 4 child swings, 2 individual riders and 2 recycled 6′ benches.”
No monkey bars no merry-go-rounds, no teeter-totters, no fun.
I like that they incorporated a couple tributes to Obama in the one pictured.
Ooh! Panels! And TWO of them! I had so much fun with panels when I was a boy. This will be just GREAT for the lucky children at Piney Campground.
