👨‍🦼🏃 We want you to join us on Sunday, June 2 at 2:00 p.m. as we celebrate the official grand opening of the Lincoln Park Inclusive Playground at 301 East Butler Street, Bryan! You do not want to miss this opportunity to be one of the first to experience this playground with its ziplines, roller slides, flush-to-ground merry-go-round, and so much more! Children and families of all physical, mental, and social abilities are invited to play together that day and enjoy a DJ, selfie booth, food and water from F&M Bank, and free ice cream and T-shirts, while supplies last.

Rain or shine, mark this date on your calendar, and “swing” by the playground for an afternoon of fun and gratitude to the numerous donors and supporters who made this dream a reality for generations to come! We look forward to seeing and playing with you then! 🤸‍♀️

The moment you have been asking for has arrived.

Operation Clean Duds will see YOU May 16th from 3-7pm at Reynolds Laundromat.

Yes, we are coming to Toledo! 🤯

We are looking for volunteers to help us as we grow, and sponsors to help fund our project.

Speaking of sponsors, A HUGE SHOUTOUT goes to Maumee Bay BNI for sponsoring our first event!!!!!! We can't do what we do without YOU! 🫵

Here are some ground rules/ info you need to know:
We help those with an urgent need or within 200% of the poverty income guidelines.

The last loads start at 630pm.

We are on a STRICT 4 load per person limit. That means we may have to do some laundromat math as the load is based on the size of the washer. It does not mean 4 washers per family member.

Also, please remember this is someone's business so don't preload early, and make sure to keep it tidy. We want to keep this relationship with the business as long as we can. Bring your laundry, and your smile, we have the rest. 👕👖

The Hilltop Athletic Boosters received a $10,000 grant from the Millcreek-West Unity Foundation to add a press box to the current concession stand at the Dewey VanArsdalen Athletic Complex in West Unity. This new second-story addition will provide a location for local media to broadcast high school baseball and softball games during the spring and summer seasons. It will also allow the cross-country team to monitor their runners and the football team to videotape practices.

Pictured left to right during the check presentation are the Millcreek-West Unity Foundation Secretary Abbie Smith, Hilltop Athletic Boosters Treasurer Vickie Schaffner, Hilltop Athletic Boosters President Tim Clark, Millcreek-West Unity Foundation President Patsy Miller, and the Dewey VanArsdalen Family representative and press box fundraising chair Bruce VanArsdalen.
