Amazing job this Sunday revamping the Playground.

On the lower level we reconfigured the 3 hopscotch and 4 square games and replaced with a 24' multi-purpose circle and 6' bulls eye. The bases and circles where repainted along with the USA map. a welcome addition was the relay race way.

On the upper level we added 2 traditional and 1 ball hopscotch, 2 ladders, alphabet and shape scramble, running line, and bulls eye. The Peace Path is getting a makeover and a half court basketball court was painted. The below image loop is a small sample of what we accomplished
