New preschool playground

Central Methodist Nursery School is a nonprofit organization. The school has been serving the Stockton preschool community for 54 years, putting their heart and soul into helping their students. The current playground has been around for 23 years and is outdated, deteriorating and inconvenient to maintain. Due to the large oak trees that shade it, the redwood retaining wall around the play structures is rotting away and becoming unsafe for the children. The wood chips inside the wall stay moist with all of the shade which causes mushrooms and acorns to grow. The teachers take time out of their day to pick them to ensure the safety of the children during outside time. They have found a way to make it work for the past few years so the students and families can avoid funding this major project. They work hard  fundraising throughout the year to provide an amazing learning experience for their students, but they need your help to tackle this big project. They could do an easy fix and buy new wood chips and fix the wall, but helping them make a permanent fix of a better suited playground will add more teacher time for students and a safer playground for the children. We would like to get the new poured rubber material which wears well, works better in the shade, and will prevent mushrooms and acorns from growing in it for the next 23 years. If your hearts are as big as the staff at Central Methodist Nursery School, then let’s work together to see those kids playing on the new playground before we know it!
