The Ausable Bayfield Conservation Foundation (ABCF) is asking for support for a new playground in Clinton for Giving Tuesday.

Giving Tuesday is December 1, and the ABCF is asking for donations to support a new natural playground at the Clinton Conservation Area. The current playground equipment is being removed this month.

The ABCF plans to fundraise for the rest of 2026 and 2027, with plans to install the new playground in 2028.

More than $30,000 has already been obtained to go towards the new playground project.

To donate to the campaign for this new natural playground, visit the Conservation Foundation donation web page, where there is a link to the Conservation Foundation’s GivingTuesday web page at https://www.canadahelps.org/en/charities/ausable-bayfield-conservation-foundation/.
