A local preschool – Lakeland’s Little Learners, Elkhorn – recently announced it received a grant from the Lori Genske Endowment Fund, of the Elkhorn Fund, a component of the Community Foundation of Southern Wisconsin, Inc.
The grant will support surfacing of the preschool playground.
“The center is excited to have a new poured rubber surface under and surrounding the playground equipment to make a fun, safe outdoor experience,” a press release about the grant stated.
For more information about this project, completed by Bluemel’s, contact Tami Adams, Lakeland’s Little Learners Administrator.
