When Oland Heights Subdivision was constructed in 1993, land was set aside
for recreational development. Several years later, following a community meeting
with Councillor Claire Detheridge (October 2007 at Coxheath Volunteer Fire
Dept.), an initial group of 10 volunteers joined together to form the Oland
Heights Recreation Association. Support continues to grow as neighbours get
to know one another and work together towards a common goal – to build
a new play area in our community!
OBJECTIVES
To create a safe, central play area for children to learn,
play & discover.
To enhance the appearance of the area (currently a vacant
lot).
To create a green space that can be enjoyed by all residents.
In one day, volunteers will build a playground in Oland Heights Subdivision
that will include:
Swings
Slides
Climbing elements
Green space
