$26,000 STILL NEED FOR OUR PLAYGROUND AND WE ONLY HAVE 22 DAYS LEFT!

Wow! What a three months it has been. We have set a LTBK record by raising the most amount of money in 90 days. We knew the community of Pincher Creek would stand behind us but the response has been overwhelming. We still need $8,000 more for the playground equipment. The higher grade gravel for the playground is $17,000 but Hulburt's Rock Products is going to donate $7,000 of the cost! A huge thank you for their generosity... And, signage for the playground is about $8,000. If you are able to donate, please do so soon. Please drop a cheque off at St.Michael's school or send to address on left side of web page. THANK YOU! We will reach our goal but it will take all of us.
PS. Sign up for build day too. It will be a day you will want to be a part of!

THE SECOND AND FINAL PHASE OF THE HENRY "HANK" PLANGER COMMUNITY PLAYGROUND!

On June 18th we will once again join together as a community to build an outdoor fitness park and a play area designed for kids with special needs- this will include a rubber surfacing for wheelchair accessibility and activity panels that are helpful for kids with sensory needs. We are also assembling some sun shelter and hoping for wind protection. To complete our playground we will have a cement path around the perimeter of our entire playground. We will once again need all individuals to come together to make this a huge success! Click on Join the Effort today!

100 Volunteers (grown ups only) will be needed to assemble the new equipment, do a little painting and a little weeding and serve the food! After the new additions to our playground are assembled join us for a Community Festival from 2-4. Stay tuned for details on the festival activities. Fun to be had by all- BIG & small!
