2nd Annual Picnic for the Playground
The second annual picnic for the playground was held on 6-16-18. A big crowd came out to support the effort and to have some food and refreshments.
 
 
 
Bruce announced that $217,000 had been raised to date, but then got two more checks of $5,000 each - putting the total at more than $227,000.
 
 
One of the checks was from the "other" Rotary club in town, Richardson Rotary. They supported us with a donation of $5,000 to the project. Thank you!
 
 
J.J. Pearce HS student Josh Roberts put his time where his heart is. Josh sat outside the lunchroom for two weeks at Pearce pushing for donations to the playground. He raised more than $200. Way to go, Josh!
 
 
 
Terrace Elementary is "all in" for the inclusive playground. The Student Council identified the project as a fund raising goal and pledged $1,000 from their cotton candy sales. They are already half way there! That's Student Council sponsor Alicia Post and members of the council. — with Alicia Post and Tom Brooks.

Terrace Elementary Pledge to Signature Project
 
The Student Council at Terrace Elementary School made a pledge of raising $1,000 for the all inclusive playground, the Richardson East Rotary Club signature project. This photo is from the check presentation on May 10 - the first half of their $1,000 pledge with the second half coming next fall. They are all on board and were early adopters, asking us to come present the project to them last fall. They raise the funds selling cotton candy after school on Wednesdays and at school functions.
 
The adults in the picture are Karen Ellis from Richardson East Rotary Club, Tom Brooks and Dan Baker, Assistant Director of the city's Parks & Recreation Dept.
