Our next stop was new for all of us. It's called the Pirate Park, and it's in Louisville next to the Louisville Middle School. Read on to find out if anyone walked the plank.
Location: Not very scenic, unless your idea of scenic is the back of Louisville Middle School. It was a smaller park, but offered plenty of shade. There was also a pavilion for picnics. I didn't see any restrooms or drinking fountains available. There was street parking available.
Dad's Score: 3 Connor's Score: 7
Cleanliness/Safety: There was a pretty good amount of litter considering it's a smaller playground. Connor also said there was some vandalism at the tops of the slides. I only say garbage cans, no recycling or compost. The surface was composed mostly of wood chips, although there were a couple of spots covered by rubber surface.
Dad's Score: 4 Connor's Score: 5
Uniqueness: Nothing unique here. I'm not sure why it's called the Pirate Park other than one sign that references the U.S.S. Polliwag and a couple of small telescopes at the tops of playsets.
Dad's Score: 3 Connor's Score: 3
Age Appropriateness: There were two different play areas, with one definitely meant for younger kiddos. Beckett seemed to handle both areas easily, though. Part way through our visit, some of the teenagers from the middle school came out to play. They interacted with the younger kids quite a bit. Connor loved that, me not so much. Eventually they became bored and moved on.
Dad's Score: 6 Connor's Score: 8
Fun: Connor's fun mostly revolved around his interactions with the teenagers. Prior to them invading, Connor didn't seem that impressed. Beckett seemed to enjoy himself.
Dad's Score: 5 Connor's Score: 5
Final Scores:
Dad: 21 Connor: 28
