Mission/ Purpose The mission of this project reflects the school and its people putting this project together. We want to inspire the community and neighborhood, while providing a safe and orderly playground with quality work that the school can enjoy as well as the community. The goal of this project is to rebuild a playground on the previous playground site in order to have a community atmosphere for the local children. It will be a safe haven for the neighborhood parents to take their children to play. The playground is part of the school lot, but is a part of the entire neighborhood to use.

SOW The project itself will create a playground on the school grounds of Conrad Fischer Elementary School, but will serve as the neighborhood playground with a neighborhood entrance. The product itself will be the playground equipment. At a high level, we plan on clearing the weeded land already existing. We then want to place a large hole to fill with the bark. We will use volunteers from the school to place the equipment down piece by piece. The high level deliverables are clearing the weeds, digging the hole, placing the wood chips, laying out the equipment.

Objectives The number one objective to meet is to rebuild the area with a playground. The second objective is to use as many volunteers as possible to save on the cost of using professional installers. Overall, the playground needs to be a safe place for the children to play.
