New Playground Mulch

7/26/2025

The City of Bazine has purchased Playground Safe rubber mulch (made from "virgin" rubber not recycled tires). The mulch will be delivered on Monday. We are asking for volunteers to help our City Superintendent, Richard Hall get the playground area prepared & then install the new mulch. We are wanting to get it all done before the Bazine Picnic. If you are willing & able to volunteer (probably in the evenings & next weekend) please text or call me at 785-398-1260 with your name & contact information. We are also asking for donations to help with the cost of the mulch. It is costing a little over $13,000, but has a 20 year warranty & is safer & cleaner than wood or recycled tire mulch. I am planning on getting a plaque to put up at the playground to honor those who donate. We would like to thank the Bazine Methodist Church for their generous donation. Every donation is sincerely appreciated. We want the playground to be a place where kids are able to play & be safe.
