Refinishing the storage cubbies
We noticed the storage cubbies were looking a little worse for wear. We saw the opportunity roll up our sleeves and refinish the pair.
How we help
Installing new protective gym pads
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.
The Dads Group went through the phone-tree of the most capable dads – who were all unavailable. The good news was the group that came together was already familiar with padded walls and got right to work.
Now we can be confident that when the kiddos are winning championships or simply playing together in the gym, they will be safe… from the walls anyway.

Removing snow in the parking lot
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.
Building a retaining wall for the playground mulch
We noticed the levels of playground mulch were decreasing in the playground and increasing in the rock beds. We saw the opportunity to attempt to contain as much mulch as humanly possible to the playground area.
