Kids Castle Needs Adult Help on June 7th
Kids' Castle Work Day - June 7
Vernon Hills' own Kids' Castle playground, located in Deerpath Park, needs some very important TLC. The community is planning a spring clean-up at the Castle on Saturday, June 7 from 8 a.m. until noon. Adult volunteers are very much in need to perform a variety of routine maintenance and repair tasks, such as sealing wood, raking wood chips, tightening swings, checking bolts, and generally cleaning up the site for a busy summer. While trained park district maintenance personnel will be on hand to work and provide guidance, at least 25 adult volunteers are needed for a successful effort. To sign up, please call the Vernon Hills Park District at 847-996-6800. Volunteers are asked to bring basic hand tools (metal rake, shovel, hammer, etc.) if possible and work gloves. Specialty tools and drinking water will be available at the site. This wonderful playground was funded and built by our local volunteers. Please help us keep this community gem in top shape!
