Be a part of the Lucas playground transformation: Work day is Saturday, May 1

The Lucas Outdoor Educational Playscape Initiative (LOEPI) is hosting a playground work day on Saturday, May 11, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. All are welcome, including Lucas students accompanied by adults.

The project involves the renovation of a portion of the K-2 playground on the south side of the school building. We will be removing some asphalt and putting in a mulch area with natural play objects.

Join us anytime during the day for as long as you wish!
  • Starting around 8 a.m. we will be tearing out asphalt and loading it on trucks.
  • By mid-day we'll be ready to preparing the area (digging out areas of the dirt and adding a drainage area). Also, we will be laying down landscaping fabric. 
  • Later in the day we will be placing the mulch in the play area, putting in the play objects that we have and cleaning up.

Items needed: Mulch forks, wheel barrows, shovels, rakes and brooms. Come dressed to work and get messy! Water and snacks will be provided – please bring a water bottle to help save on cups
and trash.
