Activity Space

Not just a "blacktop"

commonspcs_YHS-blacktop.png

The activity space - whether it is a "blacktop" area filled with asphalt or a space with equipment - tends to be open, with very little interest to the landscape. It lacks creativity and luster that could match the excitement in a game of basketball or handball. Features that add school pride is appropriate for such space. Multiple anchor features can be added to an otherwise vast space, for easier navigation and comfortable stationed point.
