Children - please keep an eye on them... Just a reminder for parents and grandparents to please keep an eye on their children/grandchildren in the playroom and tidy up after them. After 6 pm last Saturday the playroom was essentially vandalized (click for a photo). We do appreciate that the majority are already taking responsibility of their children but we do notice that some parents/grandparents are letting children run wild in there.
