</strong>The Squantum Playground Renovation Committee is meeting Thursday night and invites you to share your ideas to help shape the renewal plans for the playground.</p>
<p>When: <strong> Thursday, March 21,</strong> 6:45pm<br />
Where: 110 Huckins Avenue, Squantum, MA</p>

<p><strong>A playground in need of loving care</strong><br />
The children’s playground located on Standish Road behind the Squantum School is in desperate need of critical renovations to insure the safety of the children running and playing in the park. The playground has provided a place for children and families of Squantum to play, gather, relax, and enjoy the wonderful fresh air for many decades. With decades of use, it is in need of some loving care.</p>
<p>A group of concerned Squantum neighbors are volunteering their time to explore options for the renovation of the park. With the support of the Squantum community and the City of Quincy, the group hopes to create a space that will once again invite families to visit on a sunny afternoon or a brisk fall day to create joyful memories of precious time spent together.</p>
<p>The project team, led by David Blaton, is proposing renovations that focus on playground safety, as well as on preserving and enhancing the aesthetic appeal and comfort of the playground. Read about the proposed renovations on the <a href="http://squantumscoop.com/?page_id=845">Playground Project page</a>. We will provide updates to this information as the project progresses.</p>
<p><strong>We need your support!</strong><br />
