There has been a lot of repair, replacement, and maintenance to several artistic items at the Boundless Playground in the last few months! Here are pictures of just a few of those items.
These efforts have been made possible by funding under a Grant Contract with the State of Tennessee, Tennessee Arts Commission.
Friends of Warriors’ Path State Park has partnered with Engage Kingsport to make all these projects possible using $10,000 of funding!
We appreciate so many who have participated in the work made possible with this partnership.
Full list of items:
Repairs to Lion’s Narnia Braille Trail: Mr. Tumnus, Tumnus Cave, Beaver House
Repaired damage to 2 areas of the brick sculpture in the middle of the playground- bluebird beak, and Darrell’s nose, plus brick “Braille dots” that had been scraped away
Professional power wash/refinishing of Anderson Tree House artistic entry sign
Audio repair to Lions Braille Trail speakers
Thanks again to Engage Kingsport for your partnership!!
Friends of Warriors’ Path State Park, a group of concerned citizens, decided to help the Park by establishing a non-profit organization to improve, protect, and preserve Warriors’ Path State Park through user ideas, funding, and volunteer labor. It is important to note that any money you give to Friends goes directly to benefit Warriors’ Path State Park.
Park facilities such as the golf course, campsites, and rentals do generate revenue; however this money goes into the state’s overall budget for all TN State Parks. Monies returned to the Warriors’ Path budget are not adequate to meet current or future needs for maintenance and improvements. And that is where Friends comes in – to provide to the Park for things beyond just the operating budget.
