Quinn Tirpak's statement...

"It’s marvelous, simply breathtaking! Beautiful Astro Turf lining our soccer field along with an NBA basketball court. An awesome track with a sprinting straightaway. Fabulous turning lily pads, a cool log to roll on just like lumberjacks, and an astounding wiggle wall for climbing. Last but not least, concrete pods for hopscotch, four-square and a bouncy bounce.In the near future the pavilion will be complete."

"Good Evening! My name is Quinn Tirpak and I represent Palmer Lake Elementary School. I am here to thank Sue Huismann and Cathy Wilcox. Thank you ladies, for our wonderful playground, thank you from every student at our school. From the concrete pods for hopscotch and four square to the artificial turf. For you to do that for us kids? Unbelievable. It was an exhausting summer of work and no play, and we appreciate your caring and thoughtfulness that went into the entire process. Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts."
