Creating a Playground to Fit at First Baptist Church, Pittsburg, Texas with APCPLAY©
(PRWEB) August 22, 2014 -- What happens when you can’t find the exact playground your community needs? You ask for a little help and some modification to get the right fit!
That was the case with a recent project for First Baptist Church in Pittsburg, Texas. The Church planned to create a new commercial playground structure to encourage healthy, outdoor play for children aged 2-5 years but set their sights on the Sherwood model, from APCPLAY. The standard Sherwood model was engineered to accommodate children aged 5-12 years only.
The play experts at APCPLAY assisted First Baptist Church with modifications to the pre-configured commercial play structure that would reduce the overall height of the structure and incorporate elements that were more appropriate for children aged 2-5 years.
APCPLAY was pleased to accommodate the request, and redesign to specifications.
The modified ‘Sherwood’ commercial playground structure for this project accommodates up to twenty-eight children aged 2-5 years, offering partial UV protection from two square shingle roofs with accents.
The structure also included:
• A fun arch bridge;
• An exhilarating 90° Chute Slide;
• A Double Bedway Slide;
• A fun Tic-Tac-Toe Panel and Concentration Panel;
• A Driving Panel and a Window Panel for imaginative play (at ground level).
First Baptist Church offers Children’s Ministry weekly and has programs for children aged 4 years through 6th grade. The FirstYouth program provides fun and instructional learning about the Bible for members of the Church Community.
