On May 3 through May 5, Build Jake’s Place will be building another all-inclusive playground in Delran at 12 Hartford Road.
Officials say “playgrounds need communities, and we are asking you to help us with this Community Build. Help us hammer, saw, and carry widgets. Even if you’re not quite sure what a hammer is, don’t worry, you can still help!
Each team will be led by an expert builder as we sort and put together each component of the playground. Think of it as a huge piece of Ikea furniture. We’ll provide the expertise, food and drinks. You provide the helping hands.”
Volunteers must be 13-years old or older. The three days will be split into three shifts per day. These times will be 7 to 11 a.m., 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. and 3 to 7 p.m. Volunteers can sign up for double shifts and register at www.buildjakesplace.org.
Officials say “it is not necessary to bring tools to the build, but if you know what they are, and have them, put your name on them and bring them with.”
