Remember last winter when we were constantly hassling you to vote for Cedar Way Elementary to win a Pepsi grant? Well, as you probably know, they ended up winning the $50,000 grant and the day is finally approaching when everyone will eb able to see the new equipment. Volunteers have been hard at work preparing the site for the installation which will happen this Saturday, July 23.

The Cedar Way PTO is looking for volunteers to help with the playground equipment installation:

Our old playground equipment is GONE!! And the safety fencing is up! The playground build on Saturday, July 23rd is not too far away and we still need your help!

Even if you don’t feel particularly handy or mechanical we need all levels of support. For assembling of equipment this may mean simply screwing on a bolt, hooking on play webbing or using special tools. We need:

Help assembling equipment (instructions, training and tools provided);
Help moving wood chips;
Help coordinating and serving food/drinks;
Help checking in volunteers and getting paperwork;
Help setting up shade (think positive people!) tents;
Donations of breakfast food/snacks/drinks;
And more!
