This track was recorded at the Ontario Ave. entrance to Deland Park, as described in the map to the left. The most audible sound came from a group of children to the left of me, though I was watching another group play on the playground equipment about 100 feet in front of me. As I was listening to the sound record, I had to stifle my own laughter when I watched one young boy, no older than 6, jump 7 feet from a platform and make a 7-point landing--hands, feet, knees, and forehead--into the white sand below, then hop up and run off.
The beach itself was fairly expansive, probably 300 feet from shoreline to street, and at least two thirds of a mile long, though the constant tremor of Lake Michigan ensured the only sound I could capture would be that very close to me.
