Friends and Family,
This year Merryhill is celebrating 35 years! In honor of this amazing milestone we have an exciting goal—a brand-new playground! Help us create a magical outdoor space where kids can explore, play, and grow.
Having new equipment to enjoy for years to come would be an incredible addition to our center since 🎶on the playground is where we spend most of our days 🎶

Thank you! ❤️✏️🛝
