Annual Sandbox Giveway sponsored by the Bozeman Kiwanis Club

A local tradition! The Bozeman Kiwanis Club will provide 100 children’s sandboxes built by Club members, to given to families free of charge, sand included! The sandboxes will be distributed at the Dinosaur Park off Davis Road in Bozeman, on two Saturdays in June the 4th and 11th from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., and Thursday, June 9 from 6-8 p.m. They are available on a first come, first served basis, until all are distributed. Be sure and bring a vehicle that can accommodate the 5” by 5” boxes and over 1,000 pounds of sand, and a plastic liner.  A drop cloth in your vehicle is recommended for transporting.  Sandboxes encourage our children to be outside, socializing, and developing creative and constructive skill sets.

The Sandbox Project is one of many the Bozeman Kiwanis Club provides to give back to the community through various outreach programs.  The sandboxes are made possible by the club with support from community donations to purchase materials. Other projects include: Eliminate, through Kiwanis International has made great strides to eliminate maternal neonatal tetanus.  Local Club support is also provided for Eagle Mount Camp Braveheart, Big Sky Cancer Kids Spaghetti Feed, Hope for the Holidays, Kids in Crisis Backpacks, Fix-Up Festival, playground equipment, park pavilions, and others.  For more information about the Bozeman Kiwanis Club please go to www.kiwanisbozeman.org or “Bozeman Kiwanis” on Facebook.
