Is it illegal to go on one neighborhood’s playground if you don’t live in that neighborhood?

I have some friends who usually come to my neighborhood to play and they are sent
out by the other people who live there.I wonder if is it their right to do that?
Is the playground private property only for the ones who live there?What type of
documents/sings does it need to prove that it is private?

I wish that you had sent more information as to where the park is located.  From the research that I have done it does not appear that there are any "private" parks in Alaska, unless it is a park on private land, such as a housing complex for residents only or possibly a private community playground.  However, that does not mean that the residents can not have guests come over to play.  I would do a little investigation by contacting the parks and recreation department in your area. Good luck.
