McGarry started researching play equipment and contacting design firms. The city agreed to give a piece of land. McGarry asked her students for their wish list and specialist for their suggestions.
Her Kiwanis Club came through with $ 7, 000, and that’ s when the mass movement really got started. One woman, Ms Allen, gave $25, 000 and had her company match it. Soon smaller businesses were joining in , there were T-shirt sales, a coin drive, and silent donations.
On the first day of construction, two women took the day off to help. A couple in their 80s manned the tool cart. Ten-year-olds sanded surfaces and piled up wood blocks. Those who could operate power tools formed a separate. One team served meals donated from local restaurants and churches. " It was truly an amazing week, " says McGarry.
