so as you guys know the playground was closed last year. quick sidenote, my friends and i must have walked around the playground at least 3 times before realizing there was no way in haha... anyways i think i remember someone saying it was due to the mulch not passing a test or something of that nature... anywho, any predictions on whether or not it will be open this year?
I don't see why it wouldn't be... I mean, I don't think Superfly is going to make that same mistake twice. Especially since they are trying to be more family friendly this year.
I would think they would mention it if it was going to be there, they did last year even with it closed. I am hoping they just don't want to disappoint anybody again, so are keeping it on the hush hush just in case. There is no sonic forest announcement iirc, and it looks like it will be there again, so maybe we will get lucky, or maybe there will be one more announcement next week, along with the "we are sold out, stay away if you have no tickets" announcement.
fwiw they didn't announce teh sonic forest last year i don't think
i think now that they own the land they should build a recess style playground! tons of swings, tons of slides - i'm thinking like 100 swings or more AT LEAST
3rd grade was so fun!
ALSO -- is there a kids playground seperate from the adult playground? i'd think that would be a good thing, maybe for the kidaroo day care thing
*i like coconuts, you can break them open they smell like ladies lyin in the sun** *Hell I don't even know where I am** *for now I must sit here and ponder the yonder: The herbivores did well cause their food didn't never run** *We listen, if it feels good We shake** *You made a big impression for a girl of your size, Now I can't get by without you and your big brown eyes.**

I don't have much of an explanation at this point. A friend of mine is currently staying with me while he works on site and he mentioned it in passing...
If I had to guess, I would say it was taken out due to it's state of disrepair. Imagine a playground that gets used once a year. When it's not being used the weather takes it's toll. Add the fact that it's been around longer than Bonnaroo and you've got a playground that needed some attention to make it safe.
I hate being the bearer of bad news folks, I apologize.
My guess is we'll see a more "permanent" replacement sometime down the line, or something equally fun. With so many new activities this year, it's not like they aren't adding things.

LIKE A WATERSLIDE?!
I'm a big fan of playgrounds...but not a big fan of being intoxicated around kids...

Ditto that. In previous years, the playground has been great... like, past 9pm when the kiddies are asleep. Before that it just makes me too uncomfortable. But it was fun, and will be missed. Oh, and I second the waterslide idea. Anything that cools me off. How about a splash ride with one of those bridges over it where you can get soaked?

I was gonna say waterslide before I even read your post!
Oh wow I just found this thread. I never really "used" the playground but I'll still miss it. It's part of Bonnaroo... meet me at the playground... like the fountain. That sucks. Maybe we'll be surprised by something, this is Bonnaroo after all.
;D
