Children's Park at Jenks Academy - Phase 1

The Children's Park at Jenks Academy for the Arts and Sciences was built in 1997.  It remains an asset to the Jenks' students as well as the Chestnut Hill and Mt. Airy communities at large.  Extensive in scope, it has provided space and entertainment through the Tot Lot and the school playground.  Over the years, this much loved playground has started to show signs of decay.  While community groups and Jenks maintenance staff have patched the equipment, it is now time to replace many of the structures with safer, more durable materials. We are seeking funding to do just that! This includes the replacement of all wooden ladders, slides, jungle gyms, bridges, forts, and swings. aqWSEDAdditionally, we seek funding to replace the existing mulch and all future need for mulch with a rubberized surface required to absorb the shock and injury that comes with student spills.  

*If we do not meet our fundraising goal, we will use these funds to support this or another vital need at our school!
