When my children were young we stopped frequently in what we called “Heritage Playgrounds”. Playgrounds from another time that had not upgraded to current safety standards. The 12 foot ‘drop o’ death’ slide, metal heated to ‘ fry an egg’ levels in direct sunlight, was a favourite. Sadly, times had caught up to the pillow fighting posts at the Big Woody hall before my children arrived.
I photographed the competition and spectators in 1985-86.
Two opponents square off with pillows while balancing on a round beam about four feet off the ground. There are two catchers on either side to prevent any hard landings.
