A good example of this is the 34 ZipKrooz zipline, climbing <br />walls and 96 slide. For the 2-5 group we included components like themed spring riders and <br />crop climbers to promote imaginative play while at the same time providing movement and <br />challenge. <br />The barn structure also includes shere kids can look out <br />over the soccer fields for their siblings playing a game or look for their parents in the shelter. <br />If you would like to see more explanations of our design and process please look to the <br />design diagrams page enclosed in the RFP and the 2-D with specific component call outs. <br />Thanks for considering our proposal and please let us know if you have any questions! <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Chris DesRoches : 763.550.7860 : Chris@flagshipplay.com : Flagship Recreation LLC <br /> <br />
