Nebraska team helps fund all-accessible park
playground

Our team in Sidney, Nebraska, recently awarded $15,000 toward a new all-accessible playground.

The Sidney Park Project is the brainchild of a small group of community leaders who are raising money to build and maintain an all-accessible playground in the popular Legion Park.

Like many communities, Sidney strives to be inclusive and create spaces everyone can enjoy. The new park will be accessible to all children of all ages and abilities, designed with accessibility and fun in mind.

The Sidney Park Project has raised more than $400,000 of the $600,000 needed. The Sidney Park Project is partnering with the outdoor recreation company Landscape Structures, Inc.

We partner with our communities and customers, providing the kind of energy that fuels those areas and the lives of those we serve. Feel free to share the stories and photos. Make sure to tag us on FacebookInstagram, LinkedIn and Twitter.
