CHARLEVOIX — The Charlevoix Rotary Club is continuing to raise funds for a new playground at Mt. McSauba.

To date, $99,165 has been collected. The total estimated cost is $238,000.

Rotarian John Keyser said the playground “will be available to the hundreds of children who use this wonderful facility year-round from skiing, snowboarding and riding sleds in the winter to the sand dunes and beach in the warmer months.”

“It is a favorite destination for these children and their moms and dads for outdoor recreation and good times,” Keyser said.

The playground equipment will be specifically selected to be accessible for the vast majority of children, including those with physical challenges.

Kent Knorr, Charlevoix’s recreation director, has named the playground as one of the city’s top park projects, according to Keyser.

The Rotary Club continues to make plans to approach families, businesses, clubs, churches and others for whatever financial support they can provide.

“With this great start, there is an excellent chance the playground will be open to our children by next summer,” said Keyser.

Members of the playground committee are Mark Andresky, Abbie Hart, Kent Knorr, Jody McLoed, Bryan Lindfors, Kirby Dipert, Jeff Anderson and John Keyser.
