We would like for this water slide to foster community events where children could enjoy themselves in the summer or good weather months.

About the project
***UPDATES***
The project will be donating a water slide to be used by children who live near Memphis community centers .
This water slide will be taken around the city in the summer months and set up for a couple of hours.
This water slide idea is primarily for children to have something to do that is free in the city that rivals something like an water park.
This water slide will be available for adults to rent out for children with a low cost fee that will be used for general maintenance on the water slide.
The whole idea really is to give kids something really fun to do in the summer that is really affordable and keeps kids busy.
The water slide could be used during birthday parties as well.
Block parties could be done as well as community competitions like BBQ contest, family contests, etc.
The Steps
the first steps will be to get as many project participants as possible to fund raise and also to look in on the project and spread the word once it is completed.
The next step is to come up with activities that can go along with the water slide itself, like having block parties every week.
The next step would be to get as many suggestions as possible to get families or groups involved for competitions that would go along side the water slide as well.
The third step is how other community based programs can prosper off of this blueprint and see how this can be duplicated in other communities.
Why we‘re doing it
We are doing this because of the lack of activities in the summer months and to help deter crime as well that is being commited by juvenile offenders.
