On Saturday, July 28, approximately 800 NSCS members will join with Winter Park residents to turn a vacant field into a beautiful new playground. The site measures nearly 82,000 square feet and will serve over 350 children between the ages of 2 and 12 in the neighborhood.
Winter Park is a community with generally high housing costs.
The Meadows Public Housing Apartments serve 119 families, with rent based on the income of each family. The resident population is primarily low-income families, disabled and the working poor. In addition to the Meadows apartments, this area also has two single-family housing developments with modest homes. These families will also use the playground. NSCS playground will provide a healthy outdoor recreation space for this program as well as create a true neighborhood park for the entire community.
