Afton-Lakeland Elementary School Playgrounds Expansion

Big changes are in store for the students and community of Afton-Lakeland Elementary in Lakeland, MN!

Afton-Lakeland’s parent-teacher association has taken on a large project to update the playgrounds by August of 2020 in the hopes to make them a more fun and safe area for the kids.

Although the current playgrounds are in fact, safe, there are quite a few reasons why the administration would like to see these improvements:

1. Update equipment: current playgrounds were installed 20-years ago.
2. Leverage Stillwater, MN district funding: there is a bond available
3. Increase safety: reduction of injuries with new material to replace the wood chips
4. Expanded kindergarten playground: since Pre-K was added, this area now serves double the capacity.
5. Invest in a community asset: local Afton, MN residents also use and enjoy the areas.

There are five ways the community can help Afton-Lakeland reach their goals for funding this project:

1. Attend the kick-off fundraiser event on Friday, May 17^th from 6:00pm to 9:00pm at Afton House Inn in Afton, MN. Tickets are $25 at the door.
2. Contribute a silent auction item to the above event by emailing ptakullheng@gmail.com.
3. Make a monetary donation through Afton-Lakeland’s partnership with the Saint Croix Valley Foundation at aftonlakelandpta.com.
4. Volunteer your time and skills for demolition and install over the next two summers.
5. Share this article with your friends and family to spread the word!
