Come join your Haas peers for a fun day of volunteering and networking. A Haas team will be helping the Vallejo Architectural Heritage Foundation build this playground. We'll be cutting and sealing wood, preparing the parts, and doing all kinds of other things to help out.
Sign up to help on the Evite!
What's really great about this event in particular, is that there's no cap on volunteers. This means you can bring your s.o., your roommate, your kiddos (age 10 and up only b/c it's a construction site!), or whoever else you want working by your side. If there's enough interest, we might enjoy some social time afterward at a nearby watering hole.
Custom designed by nearly 200 of Vallejo's greatest playground experts - our children! - and one of the nation's most innovative playground design firms, Leathers and Associates, the City Park playground will be unique and a point of pride for Vallejo's families.
Placed in a grove of sycamore trees in Vallejo's historic City Park, the playground features a massive tree fort at it's heart. It also incorporates Vallejo's nautical heritage with a large play-ship. A separate play area for smaller children features a "little marina" as well as a "sea life" sand box and bungalow playhouses designed to reflect the historic homes that surround the park.
Unlike conventional playgrounds, this will be built from the ground up from wood and natural looking composite decking. And it will be constructed entirely by volunteers!
City Park is located at the intersection of Sacramento and Louisiana Streets. Established in 1868, it is one of the oldest city parks in the western United States!
