Over the summer, a new playground was constructed at Churchill School. The work included removal of 16-year-old equipment for which replacement parts were no longer available, excavation of old surfaces and installation of a new drainage system. The new playground includes a rock climbing wall and swing area on top of a rubberized surface.The frog and turtle that so many local residents remember fondly from their childhoods were re-located to the new climbing wall area.The over $140,000 project was financed by a combination of school and park district funds, a state grant, and contributions from the Homewood PTA.
