NOW OPEN - THE NEW WASHINGTON PARK PLAYGROUND
Please consider a donation or the purchase of a Brick...a little funding makes great things happen!
WASHINGTON PARK PLAYGROUND
On this page you will find information regarding the playground at Washington and the progress made in the fund raising efforts. The plans are conceptual and may change due to items discovered during construction. The hope is to complete fundraising spring and construct the playground in late spring/early summer. Attached is an opportunity for you to get involved. The Washington Park Playground Committee has developed a brick campaign to help with the fund raising. See the forms attached for more information. Our hopes are to add an attractive picnic table, benches and other site amenities, this will be done through the fund raising campaign. Once the playground is complete, fund raising efforts will be turned to the aspects of the park as noted on the master plan.
The playground committee has currently raised close to $4,000. They still need your help!
