reBlog from An Accessible & Inspiring Playground: Rubbermulch Blog
I found this fascinating quote today:
There’s a new park in Starkville, Mississippi and the surface is not wood chips, it’s rubber mulch. The new playground is located at the Starkville Sportsplex. The effort was a joint one between the city, the parks commission, and others in the community. They used donations and grant money to fund the project. After doing the research the group decided that they wanted a rubber surface rather than the traditional playground cover.An Accessible & Inspiring Playground, Rubbermulch Blog, Mar 2010
