Happy Thanksgiving!
Boundless Playground Receives Grant
On Saturday, November 8, Jennifer Salyer of Barge Design Solutions Inc. presented Friends of Warriors’ Path State Park a $10,000 grant check. This award from Barge Community Fund is to be used for Darrell’s Dream Boundless Playground. Mary Steadman, Boundless Playground Chair, applied for a $5,000 grant with Barge, and Barge liked the project so much they decided to double the grant!
Friends of Warriors’ appreciates the great support from Barge Design Solutions, Inc., not only with this grant and working at the Fall Day of Caring but also for supporting our October 2025 annual golf tournament.
Fun fact – Jennifer was the design/landscape architect who originally worked on the Boundless Playground 2005-2007.

Fall 2025 Day of Caring – Thanks, Volunteers!
We had approximately 125 volunteers show up to help clean the Boundless Playground on Saturday, November 8. There was a big storm the night before, and it left a lot of extra work to be done! Everyone did an amazing job! Below are links to pictures taken and WJHL report. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1sIctK3DvWmlrDHDwjx63ZVfVwkN0yn0t?usp=share_link

Spring 2025 Day of Caring a Huge Success!
Friends of Warriors’ Path have been hosting the volunteer days at Darrell’s Dream Boundless Playground for 18 years now! Weather on Saturday, April 26, was a concern due to some rain forecasted and some dark clouds as we gathered. However, approximately 200 volunteers turned out in force and worked right through the shower we had during the morning, resulting in over 700 volunteer hours being worked at the Playground. Many hands made the work go faster, and we were able to open the Playground back up to the public earlier than the 3 pm estimated time!
