A fresh, new look for the Seaton playground

Anthony Novick takes parental involvement seriously. His son, Joey, is a student at Seaton Elementary, and he wanted to do his part to help brighten the learning environment.

His crew from Color Wonders Painting rolled up to Seaton on Saturday, Oct. 16, to freshen up the playscape at the school.


With a bit of scraping and sanding and a healthy application of paint sprayed carefully from a large bucket, the Saturday-morning volunteer efforts brightened up the playground equipment and the basketball courts.

The paint company owner was joined by his wife, Jody, daughter Katie and employees James Keyes and Nathan Surbrook, as they added a bit of flair to the playground structures, recoating them in a popular “Seaton orange” color.

Novick’s crew was joined in the effort by Seaton parent Laura Fromwiller and daughter Renee.
