🚧 Project Update 🚧

We wanted to share a quick update on our progress. Unfortunately, the installation crew encountered an emergency πŸš‘ that temporarily pulled them away from our site. However, we’ve been assured they’ll return on Monday πŸ› οΈ in full force.

The plan is to complete the main structure πŸ—οΈ and begin installing the border and mulch 🌿. For those curious, the mulch is currently wrapped up on pallets down at the park 🎁🏞️—ready to go!

Thank you for your continued patience and support! πŸ™πŸ’š

 

We’re thrilled to give you a first peek at our brand-new playground equipment — and trust us, it’s going to be AMAZING! πŸš€ The installation is already underway, and we can’t wait for you to experience all the fun.

πŸ› οΈ But hold tight! While we know it’s tempting, we kindly ask everyone to wait just a little longer before climbing, sliding, or swinging. Safety is our top priority, and we want everything to be perfect before the big debut!

⏳ The good news? It’s only a few more days! If all goes smoothly, we hope it will be ready to play on by this weekend! 🎈

πŸŽ‰ And guess what? We’re throwing a community celebration to mark this awesome milestone! Join us on Saturday, May 31st from 11 AM to 2 PM for a day of fun, laughter, and play. πŸ₯³

πŸ“… Mark your calendars — it’s going to be unforgettable!
