    Description: 
    Three children climb on a large wooden sign that is supported by four large wooden pilings. A boy sits on the top left side of the sign. He holds onto the sign with both hands as he dangles his feet. He wears an open jacket or sweatshirt with a hood, and sneakers. The other two children are in the process of climbing the sign. A girl is bent over on the ground, her hands on her knees, to give support to a boy who is stepping from her back onto the sign. The boy grabs the sign with his proper right hand, placing his proper right foot on the sign. The boy stands on the girl's back with the tip-toes of his proper left foot. The boy wears a short-sleeved shirt and a sweater draped over his shoulders and tied around his neck. The girl has short hair and wears a long-sleeved sweater and overalls.
