Build a Playground by the Sound- imagined by kids, built by volunteersPlayground by the Sound Committee

As the result of a gravel mine reclamation project, we have been given a playground site overlooking Puget Sound. It is the perfect location for families to relax & play together. It will keep kids active and healthy, while teaching them about the rich ecosystem of Puget Sound, resource conservation & reclamation.  We interviewed hundreds of school children in five primary schools in our city. We asked them to help design their DREAM playground. Using their ideas, a playground specialist designed a 12,000 sq ft. creative, interactive, ADA accessible playground for children of all ages. It includes swings, shark tunnel, lighthouse, a whale, sea life box, boats, slides, climbing walls, and a "Galloping Gertie" bridge.   Maritime and avian wildlife structures will capture our community's unique spirit and history. We are raising  funds & recruiting 750+ volunteers to build (in one week) this unique, "kid designed", educational, community playground.
