My Project

Special events like Field Day and school carnivals are some of the most exciting moments in a student’s school year—but creating those memorable, engaging experiences takes the right equipment. We are requesting a splash tower to bring more fun, energy, and laughter to our events. Whether it’s cooling off on a hot day, watching a teacher get splashed, or using it as a prize station for games, the splash tower will bring smiles to every grade level. It’s a safe and inclusive way for students to have fun and be active.

Our goal is to create unforgettable moments that build school spirit and celebrate our students’ hard work throughout the year.

The splash tower will be used during Field Day, carnivals, reward days, and even fundraising events—becoming a highlight students look forward to every year. Your support will help turn a regular event into a celebration that brings our school community together. With your help, we can add a splash of joy to every special occasion!
