The new all-abilities playground is expected to be placed in this area of McCormick Park in St. Helens.

Originally published in The Chronicle Vol. 138 April 8, 2020 JEREMY C. RUARK jruark@countrymedia.net

The Portland Trailblazers and Moda Health have selected St. Helens to receive funding for an all-abilities playground at McCormick Park. The selection follows public voting and competition between St. Helens, Astoria and Sandy for the partnership park project. St. Helens won with a final tally of 48,094 votes. “We are very honored to win this competition and would like to thank Moda Health and the Trail Blazers for this opportunity to provide such a wonderful resource to the children in our community,” St. Helens Mayor Rick Scholl said. “We would also like to thank our amazing community members who took time each day to vote.” Scholl said the City

recognizes the importance of parks in the community and the City has worked hard over the last several years to prioritize park and trail improvement projects in St. Helens. “With this funding, we are excited to replace the old playground equipment at our highest utilized park with a much-needed upgrade that will benefit children of allabilities. Once again, thank you to Moda Health and the Trail Blazers, and let’s go Rip City!” Player Damian Lillard continues as the ambassador for the Moda Assist program, which donates $20 to the Trail Blazers Foundation for every assist made by the team during the season. Those funds go to help build all-abilities playgrounds in communities all across Oregon. Each year, three cities are selected and then fans can go online and vote. Voting this year began March 5 and ended April 2 for Astoria, St. Helens and Sandy. All three cities found creative ways

to engage their communities and encourage voting. City of St. Helens Communications Officer Crystal King said the City has yet to learn the total amount of the Blazer-Moda funding grant. “We have not been told the exact amount of the grant,” King said. “The remainder of the funding for the new playground equipment will be from a Special Parks improvement Fund that was set up by the City Council in 2018. The total project will probably be between $150,000 and $200,000.” King said until they know the specific grant amount, the City will not have a list of everything that will be included with the new equipment. “However, it will be larger and have more options than the existing playground equipment at McCormick Park, including elements designed for specifically for all-abilities.” King said the new park playground equipment will be located in the same general area as the existing playground equipment,

but a installation timeline is pending. “Once we learn the amount of the grant, we will obtain quotes from equipment provider and have the Parks Commission make a decision and recommendation to the City Council,” she said. “Once the City Council has approved the recommendation, we can order the equipment.” King said playground equipment manufacturing typically takes several weeks and installation scheduling can take an additional few months. “This will not happen by the end of summer, but should be installed by next spring,” King said. “We are thankful for our partnership with Moda Health for supporting healthy, active living through the Moda Assist Program,” Trail Blazers President and CEO Chris McGowan said. “We look forward to continuing the Moda Assist Program going forward and building more all-abilities playgrounds in the greater

Oregon community.” “In these trying times, we’re all being reminded just how important it is for youngsters – for all youngsters – to embrace an active life,” Moda Health President Dr. William Johnson said. “We all know playgrounds can be key contributors to children’s physical and emotional health. That’s why we are so delighted to continue to partner with Damian Lillard and the Trail Blazers on this program. It touches lives throughout our state.” The Moda Assist program has provided funding for all-abilities playgrounds in Baker City, Redmond, La Grande, Portland, Medford and Hermiston. Last year’s winner, Baker City, is still in the planning stages for their new park. Despite the postponement of the 2019-20 NBA season, the financial contribution to winning community St. Helens will not be impacted and will remain consistent with previous seasons, according to a release from the Portland Trailblazers.
