The Official (Unofficial) Park Etiquette of Yakima’s Randal Park

Not only is it frowned upon, but also not allowed at all anywhere. Not only did we see kids chasing ducks but their parents joined in. Not good.

Goes without saying. Nobody likes stepping in your dogs doo-doo. Do your duty and pick up that doody.

My son is afraid of dogs so when he sees a dog charging for him, that's the equivalent of someone seeing a semi-truck heading their direction. Please keep your dogs on a leash.

I saw a few picnic tables with empty cups, cans, paper plates, just sitting there and nobody in sight where they clearly just left it there. There are plenty of garbage cans in the area, throw your stuff away so another family can have a picnic.

I was walking along the track when I saw some people playing disk golf ahead of me. I thought to myself, 'watch this disk go right to me' and, sure enough, the young man tossed it, yelled, "Fore!" and I matrixed out of the way in time not to get my head knocked off. No matter how good you are, make sure there aren't people in your vicinity before playing.

I don't care how hot your mix tape is, Randal Park isn't your demographic. If you have to listen to your music, use headphones or, at the minimum, at a volume level where I don't have to hear it on the other side of the park.

Playing at the playground is a fun break from kids and adults, but if you have the type of child who pushes other kids or acts rudely, if you're not there to remind your kid of their manors, I might be.
