Good news: Play area surfacing is in. Bad news: Play area surfacing is the wrong color. More: tinyurl.com/y4x4c669
More scenes from today's playground walk: tables, fencing and lots of plants thanks to Cheryl Corson's beautiful design. We love all the progress and we *hope* it will be ready for play by the end of the month.
Enjoying the view from our new swing
This week's progress is music to our ears (eyes?)!
Our contractors uncovered an old storm drain on the site - decades, maybe 100 yrs old? Should still function, but it was completely filled in with dirt. They dug it out so it can handle drainage once more. Check out how deep it is!
Another site visit and things are looking ROCKY. Also tree-y.
Passing along the latest official communication from ACPS about our project. Bottom line: the completion has been pushed to mid-May. Read more here: tinyurl.com/y3r9x2nh
Here's a cryptic-yet-apt stock photo and a clarification about our project timeline to date: bit.ly/2uAUDNn
More views of our new playground equipment in progress!
New play equipment waiting to replace the blue and tan structure - hopefully in the next few weeks
We wore our best mud boots and walked the construction site after our project update meeting today. Here are some glimpses of a few new things and few things soon to come. The official word is that we're still hoping for a mid-April completion date.

MVCS parent Martha Davis captured some great photos of yesterday's equipment arrival. Thanks, Martha!
