Steamboat Springs firemen put a cap on Strawberry Park school Platform

Worker waits for supporting poles

Hundreds of volunteers joined Steamboat Springs Rotarians to begin constructing two fully-accessible playgrounds at Strawberry Park and Soda Creek Middle Schools. Work began on Thursday, July 24th to unload hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of playground equipment purchased with funds raised by the “Let’s All Play” Committee co-chaired by Julie Taulman and Shelly St. Pierre.

Rotarians Ben Northcutt, Kemp Bohlen, Jane Denning and Angela Catterson organized the volunteers, provided work assignments, and kept people fed and in good spirits.

By Sunday the initial concrete had been poured at both sites to stabilize footings and all of the major structures had been assembled and placed.

Most assembly will be completed by Monday, July 28th. In the coming weeks the land will be graded and prepared for underground heating equipment, cement flooring and rubberized surfaces.
