Letting the community paint a mural could also be free at least to the people participating, and as I stated, would be a dream opportunity for particularly creative kids in the community, although I don’t know about current kids given I grew up at a time when huge wooden playgrounds put up by the community were a thing.

Sadly the one where I live got torn down and replaced with a modern plastic facility after 25 years, but the art tile walls and towers made by the members of the community who originally built the wooden facility, were all preserved.

-sigh- Lawton, OK, you used to be cool once…
