To whom this may concern,
I am reaching out to express a serious concern regarding an injury at Champions Park in Lathrop. My daughter was swinging and right where both of her hands are placed to hold on, are metal joints that are perfect for little fingers, and the skin on the palm of the hand to get pinched. This injury caused skin to be removed on my child's left thumb. I was not able to get a picture of the injury as to reduce the trauma, but I do however have pictures of the swing. The fix to prevent further injury to other children would be a simple plastic sleeve over the two metal joints that allow the swing to swivel.
Thank you so much for making our parks beautiful, AND safe for all ages, stages and abilities.
