How we help

Reinstalling landscape fabric in the playground

We noticed the previously installed landscape starting to rear its head through the playground much. We saw the opportunity to fix this before it got any worse than it already was.

The Dads Group brought rakes, leaf blowers, and a whole lot of muscle (one of those claims may be false – you decide) to lay the fabric flat again and reinstall it in a more secure way.

Now when the kiddos are out on the playground the tripping hazards will be limited to untied shoelaces and not something that a dad could prevent. PSA: Velcro shoes really should be a more acceptable fashion statement beyond second grade.

Refinishing the storage cubbies

15 June 2023

We noticed the storage cubbies were looking a little worse for wear. We saw the opportunity roll up our sleeves and refinish the pair.

Installing new protective gym pads

28 January 2023

We were asked to help the school install their newly purchased protective gym pads. We saw the opportunity to get together and hang out instead of putting away our Christmas decorations – which we said we would put away the weekend before.

Removing snow in the parking lot

05 January 2023

We noticed after a heavy snowfall that the parking lot plows made the shed inaccessible. We saw the opportunity to rally and fix this so the school could access their storage.
