Help Us Bring New Sand to Indian Road Playground
Donation protected
Greetings all!
I am a local neighborhood mom and teacher who is working to raise money for Sand Day 2025!
The Indian Road Playground is one of my favorite places to hang out with my son and his buddies. We need new sand this year for the sand pit. Unfortunately, the sand was not replaced last year, so we really need it.
The Parks Department is responsible for the upkeep of playgrounds, but not the replenishment of sand. That is up to us.
Sand Day is currently scheduled for Saturday, May 31. The sand will be delivered the night before. Sand Day is a longstanding community event in Inwood. The Parks Department, families, and other community-based organizations all work together to get the old sand out and the new sand in. More details will follow about Sand Day itself, but what we need now is the funding to purchase sand.
Please contribute what you can to ensure that our children have fresh sand for this spring, summer, and fall. If your family is an IRP family like mine, please contribute what you can. Any money that is not used for sand will be used to buy snacks and supplies for this wonderful event.
