Community Park Rehab
Donation protected
Over 30 years, this park in our small rural Town of Baldwin, has been used by children of all ages and is showing it!
Working to get funding through County for some larger, modern equipment but red-tape takes a while to cut. In the mean time we would like to make the park safer by replacing the missing fencing by the ball court. Also would like to replace the hoop nets and purchase a few basketballs and a rack to store them.
Ultimately the merry-go-round will be replaced by a activity station, the swing will be reconditioned and the safety areas expanded. Private funding can make this easier as any municipal funding triggers rules that sometime triple the cost of a project. Our Little League recently closed down and gave generously and we are hoping to continue that trend to get some upgrades completed this year. Any and all funds recieved will be used to fund the park project, so any amount will be greatly appreciated.
