What happened during Lincoln's Prep Day One? I'm glad you asked. Together Build-A-Bear, KaBOOM! and Lincoln build captains and volunteers got together in preparation for Build Day, June 27. We had a terrific crew of volunteers from Lincoln and Home Depot working on cutting wood for the side projects. Our awesome Build-A-Bear crew was working on painting the background of the mural. More Build-A-Bear and Lincoln volunteers sorted all the parts of the playground into buckets. Everyone had a wonderful time working hard all day long in order to get the site together. Playworld Systems, our playground vendor, dug the holes where the playground poles will be placed. The energy everyone had was amazing. Everyone was pumped up and excited about getting the playground ready for Build Day. Together, we can make a difference one step at a time. Our volunteers worked hard yesterday and we cannot thank them enough for taking the time out of their busy schedules to help us get things done! Lincoln is proud to work with such fine individuals.
