Tiger Shark Cove Playground Closing Feb. 20th for Community Build Project
The playground at Tiger Shark Cove Park, located at 13800 Greenbriar Boulevard, will be closed to the public beginning Monday, February 20th, 2012 as Wellington prepares to upgrade this much-loved facility.
From Wednesday, March 21st through Saturday, March 24th, 2012, volunteers will rebuild the playground. This community rebuild project falls during the Palm Beach County School District’s spring break, and high school students are encouraged to volunteer to earn community service hours. Individual volunteers must be at least 15 years old. Children ages 10 to 14 can volunteer on-site with a parent or guardian. Child care will be provided for children ages 5 to 9.
Approximately 75 volunteers are needed each day to make this community build project a success. The volunteer application is available electronically in the Events section at www.wellingtonfl.gov. Minors who wish to volunteer must obtain parental consent. For additional information, contact Kim Henghold, Community Projects Manager, at (561) 791-4137 or via email at khenghold@wellingtonfl.gov. The playground at Tiger Shark Cove Park is slated to reopen on April 14th, 2012.
