Boys and Girls Club Playground Project Moves Forward

We applied for a $5,000 District Governors Grant in the 2010/2011 Rotary year and received it to provide playground equipment for the new Boys and Girls club Recreational Facility. This Rotary year 2011/2012, we applied for another $5,000 DG Grant and have recently received notification that we will get this grant also. The latest grant was for padding to be placed under the playground equipment. These 2 grants resulted in total a commitment of $20,000. The Club provides a matching $5,000 to each of the District Grants.

The total cost of the playground is estimated at $36,000. At our recent Board meeting, we voted on providing an additional $16,000 from the club to make the total commitment to the Boys and Girls club $36,000
