Mason City and Newman Catholic High Schools participating in YIELD (Youth Investing Energy in Leadership Development) identified the need to restore the beloved Prairie Playground at East Park. Last fall, students met with city staff to address concerns with the playground, and also completed a safety report card from the National Program for Playground Safety. The group raised money to cover project expenses, which included replacing and laying down mulch, replacing and repairing old equipment, and stain wood throughout the playground.
