Skipathon Fundraiser 2025

At the end of the summer each year, St. Johns Swapnplay holds an annual fundraiser campaign to raise money for specific projects, space improvements, and major updates. This year, we’re excited to announce a new, large-motor play structure is on the fundraising list!

We need everyone’s help to make this possible! Whether you can contribute $5 or $100 or more, please chip in to help make the new structure of our dreams a reality!

Plus, share with your friends, neighbors, grandparents, and classmates! Swapnplay is a community non-profit that helps support families across our metro area to raise healthy children on a healthy planet. This mission benefits EVERYONE in our city, not just parents and families!

Since opening in 2009, we’ve provided a wide variety of developmentally-appropriate, high-quality, intentional toys, materials, and opportunities across our 7 play zones. Purchasing a new play structure will allow more children to safely experience climbing, sliding, crawling, fun, since it will be accessible to more ages and stages than our current castle structure allows.

Below are some ideas of similar play structures from CedarWorks. Depending on our fundraising success, we intend to add this style of structure to the main Meadow play area at Swapnplay.
