For twelve years the neighborhood has asked for a playground. This year a group of 12 volunteers, including two retired carpenters, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the old Pioneer bus depot, but no funding.
We have received donated tools, and the remaining cost is $300.
It will serve about 392 people, including school children and their families. We'll hold a build day in March 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 $300 goes:
• Permits and inspections: $30
• Materials: $190
• Tools hire and delivery: $80
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Hope it all works out. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 13 people at work
