Greetings Friends of Dahl Playfield:

After reviewing 11 applications and interviewing 3 firms, we are pleased to announce that Site Workshop is the firm that will be facilitating our park design process. They have just completed the Pinehurst playground (dedication was last Saturday) and are currently working on Beer Sheva (not quite finished yet). They were chosen in part because of their experience designing wonderful Seattle parks of similar scope and budget. They also have a great working relationship with Seattle Parks and Recreation, and come highly recommended by the community groups they’ve worked with to date.

Please join us Wednesday, November 10th at 7pm in the U Prep Gym for our first of three design meetings. Site Workshop will be facilitating this event. This is when it really gets fun!!

Still wondering how to participate? Can’t make meetings? Please consider hosting a house party for your neighbors and friends. This is an awareness raising event that coincides nicely with the coming holiday season. It is also meant to help us with a little fundraising while everyone has that spirit of giving. More information is available about how to host this kind of event. Park design materials provided. Please contact Christine.larsen@comcast.net

Save your treasurers and sell them at our community yard sale this spring/summer. Stay tuned for more details.

Thanks again for your support to date,

Christine Larsen
