For twelve years the neighborhood has asked for a playground. This year a group of 22 volunteers, including two retired carpenters, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Union health centre yard, but no funding. We have received donated volunteer hours worth about $95, and the remaining cost is $350. It will serve about 136 people, including school children and their families. We'll hold a build day in October and everyone is invited. We're a small team, and every dollar will be spent in the open - I'll post receipts and progress photos. Funds are spent only on materials, permits and safety equipment; all labor is volunteered. Where the $350 goes: • Permits and inspections: $85 • Safety equipment and signage: $135 • Tools hire and delivery: $130 Thank you so much. - Kulap
