Slipping, Sliding, and Saving

Summertime is the perfect time to consider the installation of new playground and water play equipment.

The addition of six contracts through Sourcewell makes it even easier, quicker, and more affordable to enhance public spaces with swings, slides, and splash pads. BCI Burke, Landscape Structures, PlayPower, Rain Drop Products, SofSurfaces, and Waterplay have been awarded contracts in the Playground and Water Play Equipment and Related Services category, making their products and services available through cooperative purchasing at Sourcewell.

These contracts offer public agencies access to playground equipment; site furnishings and amenities; splash pads, waterparks, waterslides, playable fountains, and other aquatic play equipment; surfacing and fall protection; and related services and accessories.
