Thank you everyone who helped us make our dream come true!
Preston's Playground
Share
Having all children playing together is so important, no matter what their ability. Preston’s Playground will be the place for this to happen!
This all inclusive park, which will be located in beautiful Newark, Delaware, will be designed so all children will play together. There will be safe, adaptive equipment for all abilities. A bright sun shade will cover the park to protect our children from the sun and make for a cooler play environment in the summer heat. In order to make this dream a reality we need to raise $350,000! Please cons

Today marks one year since we cut the ribbon to Preston's Playground.
Thank you to everyone who made this possible.
So many smiles. So many memories.
It was a wonderful day on November 19th 2018 for the ribbon cutting of Preston's Playground.
Over 200 people attended the ceremony followed but close to 100 children running, smiling, and enjoying the simple pleasure of play.
Thank you to everyone who made this possible.

Progress is happening on the brick bench.
Can’t wait till it is done and all the donor bricks are displayed.
Thanks to everyone who bought a brick.

Parents and children.
Please refrain from using play chalk on the rubber surface at the playground.
This surface is not meant for chalk.
Thank you

Have you been to the playground lately?
We have decided to turn the bricks you purchased into a bench where people can sit and enjoy watching their children play.
Be on the lookout in the next couple of weeks for the completion of it.

We are looking for a timeline as to when this might have happened.
Thanks for your help.
We believe it was in the past week but if we can narrow it down it makes it easier to look at the cameras.

We dreamed about this day for three years and today's grand opening was just as magical as we imagined! Seeing those happy, smiling faces on the playground this morning proves what we already knew - everyone deserves the chance to play. Preston's Playground was created 100 percent by, with and for the community, from the people who hatched the idea of building this space (Nic DeCaire and Deb Markley Buenaga) to the leaders from the City of Newark, Delaware who have financially supported it to the employees of Newark Parks & Recreation who literally brought it to life with their hard work. And of course, we wouldn't be here it all if not for the thousands of people who donated to our many, many, many fundraisers. THANK YOU all for your amazing support. Here's to the power of play!

What a day to (almost) play! Thanks so much to everyone who came out to Preston’s Playground to help clean up and get ready for our Nov. 19 opening. From start to finish, this has been a community effort and we wouldn’t have it any other way!
