"It is important that your playground environment is clean and safe. Just like you take care of your bicycle, playground equipment needs to be taken care of too".

Broken playground equipment is not safe!

Things to Remember!

1. Keep your playground safe and clean.

2. Tell an adult if you see broken equipment.
