[QUOTE="OTE, post: 81423"] Keep those guys who volunteered to help with the sand, you'll need them, just differently. been there done that, a truck dumps the sand in one big hill. If you want it spread out.... Guess bank sand is a regional thing. I bought a truckload of sand for a good size sandbox from the guy who was building a new septic field in my yard. Told him it was for a sandbox and it was great, whatever he called it. I'd watch the competition with difficult children. Gets out of hand easily. Physical activity is better, wear them out so they've got no fight left in them! LOL Many of our difficult children are also creative. If this is Halloween time... get folks to donate old clothes, hats, shoes, old costumes, craft supplies, anything really. Buy bags of stuff at thrift shops or yard sales. Get tape, safety pins, glue, needle and thread, no scissors. Ask craft store to donate old stuff. Kid who designs the best costume with what you've got there wins the costume contest. Also, if you've got a sand pile think of games they can do with it. Team volleyball comes to mind. Who can jump the farthest with a running start? About Home Depot...if they wanted to donate a bunch of those kits that they do Saturday kid projects with... and even a couple of guys to do it at tables like they do in front of the store...
