Help Us Finish the McCarthy Playground!
We’re in the home stretch of a project years in the making: a safe, fun, and much-needed playground for the kids of McCarthy/Kennecott. This is the only public playground in our rural area. ️Thanks to incredible support from our community and beyond, this dream is so close to becoming reality.
Here’s where we’re at:
- A $30,000 grant from the Rasmuson Foundation is bringing our show-stopping Steamship structure to life—it's almost done being built now!
- The Barrett family generously donated the land for the playground—an invaluable gift.
- The McCarthy Area Council has contributed vital funds over the years to make this happen. Thank you for your support!
Countless volunteers have pitched in time, tools, and heart.
Altogether, this project is worth over $100,000—but we only need $5,000 more to finish strong.
We will submit another grant application September 1st to hopefully fund the fencing and outhouse. In the meantime, we need your help closing a $5K gap on the play equipment. This will also help show the grant funders our community's support.
Every dollar helps. Let’s finish what we started—so McCarthy’s kids have a place to play, gather, and make memories for years to come.
Thank you for being part of it.
