Peirce Elementary School is raising money for a new playground and everyone is welcome to use it when it is complete.

But the price tag is high. In order to get an inclusive playground with a rubber surface that allow for wheelchairs, the cost is $175,000. So far, Peirce is almost half way there. But We Need Your Help!

We’re holding a Pumpkin Patch Fundraiser on Saturday, October 5th from 11 am to 4pm. Please buy a pumpkin and help us get closer to our goal.

This is the playground we hope to install. If we don’t meet our fundraising goal over the next 6 six weeks, we will have to use woodchips instead of the rubber surface. Woodchips won’t allow for inclusion and are not as safe for falls as the rubber surface. Also, part of the playground structure might have to be eliminated.

Figuring out an idea play structure was a team effort. Peirce students weighed in with ideas such as these:

Please consider Peirce for your Fall and Halloween pumpkin needs! We hope you will visit our pumpkin patch!
