Lake Antoine Park Partners is pleased to announce that Phase II of the Everyone Plays inclusive playground is fully funded, thanks to an extraordinary community effort. During our recent Everyone Plays in 21 Days Campaign, more than 500 donors--including businesses, nonprofits, and especially local students--contributed towards our $40,000 goal.
KMS students energized the community through a grade-level competition that raised $8,000 in one week. Iron Mountain schools are completing their fundraisers, and we look forward to hearing their results. This support comes at the perfect time: construction is complete, and the bills have arrived.
We invite everyone to visit the playground, which has been busy since the contractors left. It is a lasting legacy of inclusive play, created by and for the entire community.
LAPP expects additional donations by mail and will continue accepting contributions for signage and amenities beyond the essentials covered by the original $40,000 goal. We also hope to establish a maintenance fund for the playground's ongoing needs.
Thank you everyone. We did it together.
