Rotary Selling Custom Pickets in Playground Fence

As work progresses on the new playground at 13th Street and Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive, volunteers are braving the heat to help get the job done. If you aren't able to participate in the project by giving your time, there is another way to help.

Once completed, the playground will have a picket fence installed around it, and anyone who wants to defray the cost of the project can help the Paducah Rotary Club by sponsoring a picket.

Rotary President John Williams said there will be 800 pickets available on the fence, and each picket has room for 17 custom characters for personalization.

"My wife and I got one with our grand-daughter's name on it. It's $50, it's a way that everybody can help participate financially, and you can do that here at the site, or you can do that on the website, at www.paducahrotaryplayground.com," Williams said.

Individuals, groups or businesses can get a little recognition on the perimeter of the playground by participating. Anyone who needs more information can visit the website link below.
