Chester-Upland School District School to Receive New Playground

Keystone Mercy Health Plan to Present New Safe Playground at Toby Farms Elementary School During Groundbreaking Ceremony

Chester Township, PA (Vocus/PRWEB ) October 16, 2009 -- Keystone Mercy Health Plan, the largest Medical Assistance managed care organization in Pennsylvania, will hold a groundbreaking ceremony on Monday, Oct. 19, 2009, for the construction of a new, safe playground at Toby Farms Elementary School. Even as other schools in the Chester-Upland District received new playground equipment over the past year, District financial limitations prevented the Toby Farms School from receiving a modern playground upgrade. Toby Farms, a school that has over 600 elementary school students has not had its playground facilities upgraded in recent memory. The proposed, new playground is part of Keystone Mercy Health Plan's Safe Playground Program, which is designed to create safe environments, in which children can participate in healthy physical activity.
