Commercial Playground Equipment And Shade Structures: This project was incredibly important for the kids as they'd suffered a terrible tragedy when an arsonist burned down their school playground. We immediately went to work to replace the playground and add a basketball/pickleball combo court
We encountered several challenges throughout the project such as removing large buried concrete footers left behind from the original commercial playground equipment as well as incorporating a basketball/pickleball court into the design halfway through the project. In addition, working within a very tight space to construct the court, due to the area being irrigated to be seeded for grass.
We had to quickly adjust to the needs of our client and we did this while communicating changes to the layout and design with our playground installation team. All of these challenges were overcome with careful planning, teamwork and a positive mental attitude!
"Zoom Recreation did an outstanding job of helping the school decide what was needed following an on-site fire. They were prompt with design and pricing, and provided regular communication and updates as materials were subject to the nation-wide supply chain issues. The staff was professional and installers were productive and helpful. We had our playground installed before the first day of school for the benefit of our students, and the appreciation of our parents. I highly recommend Zoom Recreation for school, commercial or individual playground or other sports related installations." - Bill Minnich, Eagle College Preparatory School
