Clear Creek trail, 1? mile south of Tapp, water fountain is taped up. It really would be good to get it going again, as is a needed water stop between Tapp and the Sheriff's substation further south.

My not yet one and a half year old tried to use one of the baby swings (the baby swing closest to the shelter) at Lion's Den shelter/Upper Cascades playground. The holes are so small we could barely get her feet through and had to remove her shoes to do so. The band between her legs was too wide and the seat made her sit awkwardly. When the larger seat was available we switched to it and I noticed her knees and thighs were dirty, red, and irritated, as well as had indentation marks from the swing. (You can see the swing responsible in the background of the picture showing what it did to her leg in just a few minutes.) We were only in it for a few minutes. This is the first time we've ever encountered a problem with any baby swing. It needs to be adjusted or replaced.

I am a parent of three children participating in swim lessons at Bryan Park pool. I have several concerns with the lack of training and the ratios of children to instructors, especially in the level 1 class. The instructors are very nice, but clearly have not had instruction or training on how to conduct a swim class. My son in level one had about 14 kids in his class to one instructor. This is a safety issue in itself, but he also had very little instruction or even pool time during his lesson. He sat on the wall with his feet in the water 99% of the time other than when it was his turn to be dipped into the water for a few seconds. Additionally, in the toddler/guardian class, our poor instructor had just discovered she was teaching the class right before the class began. Needless to say, she was not prepared and did not have anything as far as activities pre-planned for the class. I understand that finding instructors may have been difficult this year, however, if a program is being offered especially ones that have a fee, I feel that there is an expectation for there to be some quality and training involved. Learning to swim is an extremely important skill that I would hope Parks and Rec would ensure to be a quality controlled program with many weeks prior training. Please consider implementing more staff and age and swim level specific training before swim sessions begin for these instructors in future sessions. Thank you for your time.
