Back when I was a kid in '72 and we had to walk uphill both ways to the
playground, we had a 30 year old layer of cracked asphalt under the
swings, and we all grew up fine! 'Cept for me with a big-assed scar on
my forehead from a failed running belly-flop into the swing. Builds
character, dang it; and I have a convenient reference line for where to
part my hair.
Really... I think I heard federal safety guidelines for today's
over-protected kids call for like 12 or 18 inch "pit" of mulch under
equipment. Which seems like what I've seen at current public
installations. Seems like without some good drainage plan, it could
turn into a nasty swap-like pit.
