Bozeman Kiwanis Sandbox Distribution June 3rd and 10th
Monday May. 22nd, 2017
A local tradition! The Bozeman Kiwanis Club will provide 80 children’s sandboxes, built by the club, given to families free of charge, sand included! The sandboxes will be distributed at the Dinosaur Park off Davis Road on two Saturdays in June the 3rd and 10th from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., and Thursday, June 8th from 5-7 p.m. Sandboxes get our children outside, while socializing and developing creative and constructive skill sets. The sandboxes are available on a first come, first served basis, until all are distributed. It is very important to bring a vehicle that can accommodate the 5” by 5” boxes and over 1,000 pounds of sand, and a plastic liner. It is highly recommended that you protect your vehicle with a tarp or drop cloth for transporting, as the sand is loose. Pick up trucks are the best way to transport the boxes and sand. You may reserve a sandbox in advance, for pickup by going to

The Sandbox Project is one of many the Bozeman Kiwanis Club provides to give back to the community through various outreach programs. The sandboxes are made possible by the club with support from community donations to purchase materials. Other projects include: Eliminate, which through Kiwanis International has made great strides to eliminate maternal neonatal tetanus. Local support is also provided for Eagle Mount Camp Braveheart, Big Sky Cancer Kids Spaghetti Feed, Hope for the Holidays, Kids in Crisis Backpacks, Fix-Up Festival, playground equipment, park pavilions, Thrive, and others.
