White House Playground
I am sure you know this already, the Obama’s installed a playground in the WhiteHouse lawn on March, 4, 2009. Here is an image of a plaque which was put on the play system.

A few days after the playground was installed in the White House lawn, The National Recreation and Park Association contacted the White House and advised them to implement playground safety and suggested that they install rubber mulch for the playground surface. The White House in turn contacted Rubberecycle.com to have them install the rubber mulch. Below you can see the before and after pictures of the playground with and without the rubber mulch.
Being that they are one of my clients, I wanted to take advantage of the moment and do some PR for them. I contacted Janet Thaeler aka newspapergrl, to write a press release for Rubberecycle. You can read the press release about the rubber mulch on prweb.com.
I have used Janet’s service many times in the past, she does some great online PR, and I was very please with the success that we received from the latest press release.
As promised here are the playground before and after pics.

I love Malia and Sasha’s swing set.
I think every American family should have the privilege of owning a set like that. I am happy to see that it is safe for kids to play on. Rubber Mulch is great stuff. Does anyone know where the white house got the rubber mulch?
The great way to protect your kids and environment go with rubber mulch that was placed at the White house playground from Rubberecycle.com they have the mulch it is great. Moshe Rosen
