We've just recently received some new members in addition to the few active members that were helping with most of our fundraisers, and attending our monthly meetings. I want to express my thanks for them joining us, as I look forward to us working together to get this project underway. However, we can always use more help, so if you can spare as little as an hour a month (for our monthly meeting), and help with some fundraisers from time to time, we would greatly appreciate it. For more information, please contact: darrell@Goodwillplayground.com.

Upcoming fundraisers include:

Saturday, March 15, 2008

We will be having our annual Easter egg hunt @ 11:00 am. Age groups of 2-4 year olds, 5-7 year olds & 8-10 year olds. There will be prizes for each age group. As usual we will also be selling hotdogs, sodas, and misc. snack items to benefit the playground. We need help "hiding eggs" starting at 8 am. We also need people to help sell refreshments, and grill the hotdogs during the event. Donations of baked goods / refreshments would also be appreciated. For more information, please contact the Good Will Hose Company at 570-286-2831

We are looking for people to help with donations of materials for the buildings or possible get materials at a reduced cost, or to volunteer their time in helping construct the building. We need people to help with concrete blocks (for building), new sidewalks & foundation, plumbing, electrical, roofing, etc. If you can help in any way, or know of any ideas, please email me at: darrell@Goodwillplayground.com.

Current fundraisers include:

We are collecting aluminum cans on location at the Good Will Playground in Sunbury. A dumpster has been donated for our use to collect the cans. Please do not put other recyclables in the dumpster with the aluminum cans, as we can not get money for them, and we actually end up incurring costs to remove them.

We are selling Good Will Hose Company Playground T Shirts for $6.00 each or 2 for $10.00

They are pre-shrunk 100% Comfortsoft cotton 5.5 ounce Hanes Heavyweight T-shirts. We have sizes ranging from Adult Small thru 3XL. All sizes are only $6.00 each or 2 for $10.00, and make great gifts! If you would like to order a t shirt, please contact us at: Sales@goodwillplayground.com

We are also selling cookbooks. These cookbooks have over 390 recipes for only $6.00 each or 2 for $10.00
