On Wednesday, Nov. 22, at 1 p.m., Howell Public Schools, Genoa Township, and Michigan Recreational Construction will celebrate the completion of Survivor Playgrscape with a grand opening and ribbon cutting ceremony. Through Howell High School’s annual Senior Survivor fundraiser, students raised more than $450,000 to help fund the construction of the inclusive playground. Genoa Township and Michigan Recreational Construction also contributed to covering the cost of the new playscape at Genoa Township Park.
Survivor Playscape, located at the Genoa Township Park off Dorr Road. allows individuals of all abilities to learn, play, and explore together. This nature-inspired playscape features natural elements and textures such as logs, stumps, ropes, boulders, and plants. While playing at Senior Survivor Playground, children will develop physical, imagination, and problem-solving skills through self-directed play.
The ceremonial ribbon will be cut by the 2021 and 2022 Senior Survivors, who collectively raised more than $450,000 to help fund the playscape. All attendees will be invited to explore the new playscape after the ribbon cutting.
