Correct me if I am wrong, but wasn't this bench purchased via donations?
I can't really imagine any type of mower doing that type of damage, especially without doing some damage to the mower and having some sort of repercussions on the operator by the people that hired the person to operate it. I think that Johnny 5 is correct that having some sort of pad around it would be beneficial to protect it from mowers or weed whips, and also make it easier for the people maintaining the lawn to do their work. I still have a hard time however, believing that all this damage is being done by a mow crew.
