Village Green Playground Update

Hello Owners,

I wanted to give you an update on the status of our playground. As some will remember, a few years back there was a concerted partnership between the SVMA and the Resort to re-imagine the Village Green. An outstanding item of which includes the Resort’s installation of a playground unit. With SVMA Board Approval, we have purchased a feature from Bears Playground out of New York. I chose this vendor by working with some friends of mine in the child care business. We were able to obtain a sample box of materials, and this company’s mission of “marrying nature with play” is what sold us on being the right fit for our beautiful mountain environment. We have a very small available footprint to work with, essentially the east corner of the green. I was keen to have the playground ready to unveil at our annual homeowner’s weekend in August, but due to supply chain challenges - it does not look like we will achieve installation until the September timeframe. However, I did feel compelled to give you an update - we will speak to this in our annual SVMA meeting on August 5th. Below is a link to an example of the unit we selected called The Proudest Monkey. Enjoy! Best, a.
