This playground has served thousands and thousands of people over the last 10 years and we want it to continue to do so for many more decades to come. This event will help us raise money for long-term surface and equipment repairs. We are also holding a Memorial Walk in behalf of the late Maria Neumann who did so much for this project and many others. We appreciate all of your support.

We are in need of ALOT more volunteers every day from 8-9. We are quickly falling behind.....so bring a friend and come be a part of this awesome playground. We have all the necessary tools, and need people of all skill levels. See you there!

We could still use volunteers every day all day! Take advantage of the awesome child care we offer for the volunteers. Todays events included stories, crafts, a magician, and balloon maker, hula hoops, and snacks. Open 8-8 at the LDS church on Hawthorne and Chubbuck. Bring a lunch for your kid....They won't want to leave :)
