Update #8: Big thanks to everyone that helped us reach our goal. Just a few hours to go to raise as much as we can!

Posted on May 31, 2011

Thank you so much to everyone that helped us reach our goal.  We are on our way to getting the Splash House built and although we only have a few hours to go, any additional donations will go a long way in purchasing materials for the project.

Thanks again and we look forward to seeing you make a splash in the pool!

Update #6: Block Party Report-Mock-up rides down NYC streets!

Posted on May 24, 2011

Check out the video and images from this past weekend's Parsons Street Festival.  The mock-up miraculously made it out of the building and into the street traffic on 5th avenue. We had a lot of interest in the project and even got a few donations in our hard hat tip jar!  We are currently at 60% funded with 8 days to reach the remaining 40%. We are so grateful to all of our backers that have donated so far and we need help in this last effort.  We are asking for everyone to email out our link and post it to your facebook page!
