Playground Update

It's almost here! After 1.5 years of planning & construction we are mere weeks away from an amazing new playground!

The renovation has been progressing through the summer and will be completed shortly after school resumes, currently projected for mid-September. Once the equipment is installed, students will receive an orientation for safety and usage. We will be sure to announce solid dates as they are finalized.

At this point in the project, we've had to financially scale back plans for landscaping and art. We are still accepting donations to help push through the last pieces of this project. If you haven't yet had an opportunity to contribute, we welcome your donations via check at the JSIS office or via Paypal.

In the coming weeks, there will also be several opportunities to volunteer your time to the final tasks, including assembling the equipment, spreading new woodchips, and re-painting the lines on the blacktop. Please sign up!

Playground Equipment Build - Volunteers Needed!
Contribute to the legacy of JSIS by helping to build the playground! Many volunteers are needed for Sat. Sept 10th to construct the new equipment under the guidance of the vendor. If we can't finish on Saturday, we may need a handful of volunteers on Sunday, but our hope is to get things done in one day. Please note, this build project is for adults only; kids will not be allowed on site. Sign up here!
We will also be sending out sign-ups for woodchips and painting once dates are confirmed. Kids will be welcome to help out at those events.
