Thank You Bench / Planter Sponsors!
We want to give a HUGE shout out to @andrarchy, @surfermarly, @fulltimegeek and @dylanhobalart.
We are thrilled to have your support and so excited to have such awesome furniture sponsorship in Steemit Park! This week we're doing some mock-ups for bench / planter signage and wanted to share the progress thus far. (See below.) If you have a QR code scanner app on your phone, give it a shot! Each QR code provides a link to that sponsor's Steemit profile page. The pop-up Park (located in Brooklyn) will have tens of thousands of visitors this summer. Your name will be on display! That's a lot of exposure!

What is Steemit Park?
“Steemit Park” is an interactive community garden in the heart of Brooklyn, New York. Located within the historic Herbert von King Park: Steemit Park is a pop-up installation that will be used to host Steemit meetups, local community events, workshops and dozens of activities throughout the year.
- When? : Fundraising is happening now! Steemit Park opens this Summer, 2017!
- Where? : Herbert von King Park in Brooklyn, New York. Click here to learn more about this historic hotspot of the community.
Support!
This project will be created, constructed and maintained with 100% STEEM and SBD donations! Your upvotes and donations will help make this community garden a reality. In return, we have some amazing awards for you. What will your STEEM and SBD get you?
- (All deliverable prizes - noted by the envelope icon - will be delivered to your address of choice by the end of September, 2017.)
Award B : Get a 3D Printed Flower!
Those who donate 50 STEEM or SBD will receive a 3D printed magnolia flower designed and printed by @hitheryon. The flower pays tribute to a special local landmark.
Award C : Sponsor a Bench or Planter!

Good For Community, Good for Steemit
This new neighborhood hotspot in the heart of Brooklyn will act as a colorful and dynamic billboard for the Steemit community. We @hitheryon believe that this physical design project is an important and exciting proof of concept for STEEM and Steemit. We want to build something physical, lasting and impactful with cryptocurrency. Tens of thousands of people will visit Steemit Park this summer. Our team @hitheryon will host Steemit workshops and events for the purpose of onboarding community members and activists to the Steemit platform (this includes park visitors, park representatives, volunteers, local residents and more!)
Upvotes and donations will translate directly to funding for furniture, events, park maintenance, beautification and restoration for a neighborhood in need. This project is about discovering new ways of using STEEM and Steemit for social good!

THANK YOU SUPPORTERS!! We won't let you down.
BTW @voronoi, we never discussed our own donations/QR codes. Seeing them rendered out makes me want to wiggle my STEEM wallet...
Hello @hansikhouse I would like to donate for a placard on a bench. Where shall I send this donation to? -thank you
Thank you so much @thejohalfiles!! You can direct the 200 donation to @hitheryon. We'll have invoices and proofs of purchase soon. Thanks again!
I have just sent the donation over to you. @hitheryon Thank you very much for waiting.
You are powering down?
Thank you very much I will let you know here when I send that payment over. I am on the road right now ...will be able to sign a transfer over to you in the next few days.
Hello, please give me 72 hours and I will send that money over. Thank you.
Absolutely, thank you again!
Thank you for this great project @hansikhouse
Get on it @hansikhouse ... I just donated ;)
Whoaaa slow down @warrenbuffet! Give me a few days to get my payouts in order ;)
But I'll do the same~
... how is that username not taken yet??
Because I've been busy trying to get @bradpitt and @georgeclooney approved... #priorities
so glad to see the fundraising coming together! Also, thanks for posting the deadline...good to know how much time I have to - like @bradpitt and @georgeclooney - get my payouts in order.
Haha, @natureofbeing thanks for being such an awesome supporter! Brad and George need to step up their Steem-game.
I want one sooo bad!! But alas I will have to wait until next year.
Take lots of pictures for all of us! You are appreciated.
Not to worry! Your upvotes and comments are equally important! Thank you so much for your support @clevercreator :D We will absolutely take a TON of photos this summer!
OH a clever thought has appeared...would you do a post about how to make one?
Maybe you could add a lower donation for a placard to add to our own local Steemit Home Town events? But this way we are supporting the a really great "be seen" event.
I can only support with my upvotes at the moment :)
We sincerely appreciate every shape and form of support! Your upvotes mean a lot to us, thanks @readmore!
I am doing my best to be more influential on Steemit, I have joined for few days and now is active as I could be. For now I can only give up upvote and resteem but please watch me out later. I am confident...I can contribute much more in future.
Welcome to Steemit! We deeply appreciate your upvotes and comments. Truly, support comes in many forms. Thank you @wilkinshui!
wow a physical steemit park, amazing
Thanks @shahzadnisar :) we're super excited to get it rolling this month! Lots of exciting updates to come.
Wow this looks awesome, something in physical reality, and it's a park! And better yet a steemit Park!!
Thanks @da-dawn :) It's a real live Steemit park!
This looks awesome
Thanks @bigbear!
This will get a lot of attention, way to go!
Wow. This is a really cool project. I wonder if it'd be possible to do this in Los Angeles! Maybe get some filmmakers on board. I'm following this account now and would love to hear how it goes.
It would be awesome if they created something like that in K Town. There is very little green space, and the owners of the green space near Wilshire Western started scaring people off because they want to build on it but the city won't let them. Not coming down on them, it might be a hassel to take care of. That would be a great Steemit park, but it would be massively expensive.
Nice post so I vote you
What a great idea!
Thank you for your support!
Will be sponsoring a bench soon and helping collect more donations resulting from my post: STEEMIT PARK Bench to be Sponsored by virtualgrowth
Thank you so much @virtualgrowth!!
