Have a wheelbarrow? You can help.

Dream Park Revitalization committee co-chairman Kristy White said she realizes it sounds a little extreme to ask for 29 more wheelbarrow and 47 drills, but she’s serious: She needs to borrow them.

“People don’t realize that we’ve got to unload a couple of truckloads of shredded rubber,” she said. “That’s a whole lot of trips with only a dozen wheelbarrows.”

And the drills?

Every handrail in the park is being replaced. That means that a drill is needed to take the hardware out of the current rails, and to replace the screws.

And every tool the committee has to purchase diminishes the scope of the revitalization project.

“Money used to purchase tools we couldn’t borrow will mean something will be left unfinished in this remarkable renovation, “ White said. “Please go through your garage and truck tool box and let us borrow your tools for the week.”

The tools are guaranteed, and can be picked up on Monday.
