SNAP Center Playground Opening

/

The SNAP Center is the first project under Graceway Communities that our customers voted to win overwhelmingly in our Staying Blue, token scheme.

We are most proud that Graceway Communities has been able to give power to the people in deciding what it was that is most important to them that we develop, serve and help.

🛠️ After many months of long, hard work, we are proud to announce the completion of the SNAP Center Playground! The new playground comes fully equipped with a running track 🏃🏾, astro-turf area for sports, shaded picnic benches and play areas, sand pits, and for surrounding the track- Graceway Communities and SNAP Center came together in deciding which playground equipment was best suited for the students and gave them the most benefit, this took into consideration sensory features, factors and development- some features were even built in-house!

The Grand Opening was a major success, remarks were made by Hon. Rachel Taylor, Hon. Jay Saunders, Hon. Sammy Been and H.E Anya Williams in regards to the importance and the impact this project will have on the students of the SNAP Center, as well as thanking Graceway Communities and Graceway Supermarkets for their continuous community and charitable work.

Special thanks were given to Jeffrey Luker of Graceway Supermarkets, who has gone above and beyond in managing and overseeing this project. Special thanks also goes to local businesses that assisted in this development: Windward Development assisting in design and earth works coordination, Robinsons Survey assisting in survey works, T-Holdings Ltd. provided labor at cost for installation of equipment and fencing, Caribbean Dredging for donating trucking services, and, Herzog for providing asphalt at cost and equipment for free.

Graceway Communities recognizes the importance of child development and education, and the long- term impact it has on our community. We are proud that this new development will assist in the development for kids with special needs by creating a fun, safe and judgement-free environment, allowing them to express themselves and explore their capabilities and opportunities just as any other child.

We are proud that this project has been chosen by our valued customers and people of the Turks and Caicos, and proud that this project has brought together the community in delivering this new playground to the children of the SNAP Center.
