Upgrade Playground in Noordhoek Common

Hi there,

As you may know, the playground area in the Noordhoek Commons is very run down and has actually become a hazard for kids.

We would like to revamp it!

In partnership with the Noordhoek Commons Committee we have devised a plan that gives the area a beautiful upgrade, while having a small footprint to our beloved Commons.

The plan foresees:

• Covering the roots of the large tree next to the foot path with laterite clay to prevent injuries and top soil erosion
• Creating 3 swings on large tree over compacted laterite clay floor
• Adding 2 Tandum swings at small tree area (see pictures)
• Create Balancing pole between tree cluster

The overall cost of labor, material and clay amounts to 50.000 rand - see attached quote by the talented carpenter Lance van Rooyen.

We hereby kindly ask Noordhoek Community members to donate for this project!

We are grateful for any contribution and will keep everyone up to date on the progress of this project.

Cheers

Sebastian Dienst

P.S. there will be a fun pick nick for all donors and their kids once the project is completed!

P.P.S. the fundraiser is raising in USD as it was not possible to connect Paypal for ZAR.
