Does no one remember how the possessive works?

I recently saw this sign outside the Bowen Island Community School. The intent is that you put your head in the hole at the top and it looks as if your head is on the swimmer's body.

Cute and something that all tourists would love to do.

My issue is with the wording at the bottom. It should read "Vancouver's Seaside Playground". How hard is it to get the English right?

I know, I'm just being pedantic. But these days that seems to be my role in life.
