Playground Donations Needed
We are getting closer and closer to reaching our goal of getting a new playground equipment on the north end of the building. This is the old "Small toy" that needs to be replaced. This new playground toy would be a new and improved area with tile and a fun playground renovating a much need area for kids.
Sue Lindsey (Lincoln Parent) and Ron and Linda Fess (Lincoln Grandparents) are making sizable donations to the cause. If others would like to join in on the effort it would be greatly appreciated so we can add more components to the playground. Big or small we will take them all :)
Please let Principal Sonju know if any Lincoln families would be interested in helping make this happen jasonju@rochester.k12.mn.us.
