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!
