Each level

carries its own criteria and form or recognition for the

contributor. For instance, a Silver Level contributor

must contribute between $1,000 and $5,000 or in-kind

contributions of the same value.

In return,

a plaque identifying the contributor as a Silver Sponsor

will be placed at the playground. Also, a distinctive

plaque will be presented to the contributor at a

Recreation Commission public meeting and news releases

will be prepared and distributed.

Gaddo said

that the playground is being planned for Luther Glass

Park, also known as Three Ponds.

"It is

centrally located and provides a very passive setting for

such a facility," he said. "There is a perfect

area for it there, far away from roads but near cart

paths for easy access. The facility will be fenced so

parents won't have to worry about children's

safety."

The

Recreation Commission is slated to appoint the full

committee during its Feb. 21 regular meeting, which

begins at 6:30 p.m. in the City Council chambers at City

Hall.

"We're

all very excited about this project," said Gaddo.

"It's the kind of project the entire community can

take part in and be proud of."
