In order to complete the enormous electrical and fixture installations as well as keep the construction progress moving along, we needed a BIG assist with donated ceiling materials. Jasman Construction, MDG Enterprises, ASI Building Products, and Macomb Township Home Depot pulled through! With the help of our ceiling install experts Ron, Bob & Shawn, Play-Place's ceiling system is 90% complete!
Speaking of ceiling tiles, Sprinkler Fitters 704 are hard at work! They have begun to drop the sprinkler heads into our new ceilings for our fire safety system
. Materials were donated by Professional Sprinkler, Ace Sprinkler Co., Wolverine Fire Protection, and Simplex Grinnell. Thank you, you wonderful people!
IBEW Local 58, NECA, and Ferndale Electric
are working hard now that our ceilings are being hung! Electricians are working diligently to get our light fixtures installed and tie up a few loose ends (literally). Woohoo! This is the last big step for our electricians and we are so grateful for their hard work, speed, and dedication to getting their portion of this project done.
Lifestyles Ceramic Tile, Boston Tile, and Eldorado Tile & Marble Co.
Thank you to our very generous tile donors Lifestyles Ceramic Tile and Boston Tile. We just LOVE our newly renovated bathroom! All we have left to do is to paint, and it is complete! W
e would also like to thank
Eldorado Tile & Marble Co.
for installing these beautiful tiles.
What an amazing job they have done! Thank you so very much for transforming this space.
Glass and Mirror Craft dropped off an incredible donation of safety glass which will be installed throughout the facility. They truly bailed us out on this one because glass is so unbelievably expensive, and they donated enough glass for the entire facility. Thank you so much, guys!

We would like to send a huge THANK YOU to Kristen R. who organized such a unique event for Play-Place at Remember When Scrapbooking on February 6th!

February 29th marks the end of a two month long fundraiser The Local Credit Union has hosted for Play-Place. The amazing team at TLCU worked hard to raise
$500 for Play-Place. Their wall of supporters is truly overwhelming, and we are so very grateful for all of the community support! It is absolutely amazing to see how full this wall has become. As always, every Saturday they come out and help feed our construction heroes coffee donuts and other treats. Thank you so much to
The Local Credit Union! Stop by and say thank you to these amazing individuals.

We've become quite the Michigan State fans (Go Green!). The amazing men in Phi Kappa Sigma (Skull House) came in on a Saturday to volunteer. These guys are amazing! They helped paint, moved our fill dirt in preparation for our glass delivery, swept floors, and made us laugh and smile. We are so grateful for Phi Kappa Sigma and all of their hard work.
