  • Distributes equipment during the build
  • Is responsible for keeping track of equipment at the end of each build day
  • Arranges for owners to pick up their tools in "check-in" condition at the end of the project
  • Coordinates electrical service/ layouts with facility manager/General Contractor
Food Team item
Food Team
Free

Secures donations from local restaurants, organizations, church groups, etc. to feed volunteers during construction. Play by Design provides an outline that includes the suggested number of meals to provide per shift each day. Coordinate assigned volunteers each day to prep, serve, break down, and clean up.

Art and Design item
Art and Design
Free

One of the best ways to “make your playground your own” is to incorporate local art. Legacy Park invites local artists and children (under the supervision of adults) to participate in the creation of artwork that will enhance the design, add play-value, and make our playground one of a kind.

  • This work will occur in the week after the build Aug 3-7
  • Supplies will be provided by Legacy Park
