May 1-31: Feast! Tofino
From the boat to the your table.
Hello Tofino,
The Wickaninnish Elementary Parent Advisory Council is very excited to announce the new playground is coming soon!
We are looking for volunteers with various skills and tools to help us with our community installation, which will be taking place the first weekend in May. The School District 70 maintenance crew will be prepping the ground beforehand, removing the old, unsafe equipment and pea gravel, and prepping the site for the new equipment.
The equipment will be arriving on Friday, May 3rd, sometime in the afternoon. We will need about 6-8 volunteers for about an hour to unload the equipment from the truck. We are also looking for an excavator and operator to dig holes for the supporting posts.
On Saturday, May 4th, we will be looking for about 15-30 people to help assemble the equipment, and we have already heard from at least a dozen people that they will be there. We will have a list of tools and equipment to bring, ranging from cordless impacts to wheel barrows.
We also hope to have some food and refreshments for the volunteers that day.
Sometime that afternoon, when all of the equipment is secured and ready, we will need concrete mixed and poured.
Our fundraising efforts have afforded the equipment so far (which we had to purchase before a March 31 grant deadline), but we have yet to reach our goal, and at this point are seeking donations in kind to cover the costs of excavation, concrete, and food and refreshments.
If you are able to contribute in any way, please contact Sarah Stoski by email @ wildwestcoast@gmail.com
*Monetary Donations made out to Wickaninnish Elementary can be issued a charitable tax receipt through SD70*
