School is back in session! Summer fun may have taken its toll on the equipment, and the start of a new school year means it’s time for the regular maintenance that is an important part of keeping playgrounds safe and functional. Inspections – whether formal or informal – should cover hazards such as equipment age, surface safety, tripping and fall hazards, railings, choking and entanglement hazards, equipment spacing, loose, broken, or missing equipment and fasteners.
If you see any hazards, report them to the school, community league, city or local municipality to prevent further damage or an accident from occurring as a result. A safe park is a fun park!
