We understand that kids will be kids, and we know no damage was intended. However, in less than 24 hours of being installed, our brand-new volleyball nets have already been stretched from being used as swings and are now sagging.

Please remind your children that the nets are for volleyball only and are not designed to be climbed on, hung from, or used as playground equipment. Taking a moment to talk with them about respecting community property helps ensure everyone can continue to enjoy these amenities.

Thank you for helping us keep our park and recreation areas in great shape for everyone!
