Description: One Brick will be assisting this KaBOOM! build at Bayshore Heights Park in Daly City.  Come join us as we help KaBOOM! and community volunteers erect an entire playground from the ground up. We'll be building playground equipment, mixing and pouring cement, and surfacing the play areas.

Don't worry if you've never done this before...there'll be plenty of KaBOOM! guides there to make sure we're doing it right!

Other Info: Important: The location has slightly changed. We are now meeting at 450 Martin Avenue

Gloves and tools will be provided. (If you have a favorite pair of work gloves, feel free to bring them along.)

Breakfast and lunch will be provided.

Volunteers should wear clothing that is protective (i.e. long pants, long-sleeved shirts and sturdy footwear) as well as clothes that the owner does not mind having to discard as a result of being stained with paint, glue or concrete. Layered clothing, sunscreen and a hat are recommended

Organization: KaBOOM!

KaBOOM! is a national nonprofit organization that helps to provide spaces for kids to grow. For too many of our children, playgrounds are not open spaces with safe, colorful equipment. Instead, they are garbage-strewn lots, abandoned cars, drain spouts filled with broken glass, bushes riddled with crack vials and needles, or boarded-up and abandoned buildings. Even for those families whose playgrounds appear safe, hidden dangers exist: inadequate surfacing; jagged equipment edges that can pinch and tear skin; outdated equipment that can catch drawstrings and choke children; and, simply, poorly maintained equipment. KaBOOM! inspires individuals, organizations, and businesses to join together to build much-needed, safe and accessible playgrounds. Through this team effort, they help communities create a model of partnerships that achieve positive and sustainable changes in neighborhoods nationwide.

Please Note: If the parking lot at the event is full, you will be directed to park in the Upper Parking Lot of the Cow Palace and shuttled a short distance to the location. (It's within walking distance) *Please note: event location has slightly changed.
