10th Street Park in Bowie, Maryland has some exciting new BCI Burke Playground Equipment. This play area has a fun train-themed play structure as well as a RopeVenture Sky5, swings and nature-themed play pieces. It was project managed by Charles Tresky - Recreational Specialist for Maryland. #weALLneedplay #playmoves

In February we celebrate the birthday of our Operations Manager, Krissi Valade Moineau. She has been with us since 2006 and is our chief problem solver and go-to person to answer questions. Without a doubt, she is the one who holds our office together and makes sure everything is running smoothly. Beyond office logistics, she also takes care of our team and keeps things fun. This includes bringing over her amazing dog, Zenith, when we need a little pet therapy.

Level X Ally is play that moves us! It is part art installation, part play structure. It has a smaller footprint than the Level X so it works great as a stand alone structure for a smaller budget or a pocket park. It can also be linked to another Burke play structure as part of larger recreational area. #weALLneedplay #playmoves

One of the most adventurous new Burke products for 2021 is the Rope Tunnel. This unique tunnel is suspended in the air and uses rope to connect platform to platform. #weALLneedplay #playmoves

Play can be about physical movement but it is also imaginative. Burke's brand new discovery stations and playhouse help kids develop and engage in pretend play. Each station has realistic details and plenty of space to interact. See the video here: https://vimeo.com/495279976. #weALLneedplay #playmoves

January is the month we give a Happy Birthday shout out to Eric J White! Eric has been a Recreational Specialist with us since 2006.
