Bliss Products Project
I support parks, schools, and town crews across the Upstate, turning early ideas into public spaces that hold up to heat, storm season, and foothill grades. With Bliss Products and Services resources behind the process, coordinated packages are built so the final layout is practical, durable, and straightforward to maintain.

To get started, share the site location and a short brief on what the space should include, along with any photos, drawings, or notes you already have. Priorities can then be translated into a clear direction that fits the site and supports review, pricing, and purchasing.

From there, documentation and scheduling are coordinated so approvals and next steps stay organized. Cooperative contract routes and faster-ship alternatives can be discussed when budget or timing is a constraint.

Communities We Serve Across the Upstate

Parks, schools, and trailheads across South Carolina’s Upstate need products that perform through heat, storm season, and foothill grades. Planning is typically shaped by drainage, anchoring, surface transitions, and realistic upkeep, then built into a coordinated mix of play, shade, surfacing, shelters, seating, and sports elements that fits local requirements and purchasing review.

Grants & Funding Support for Upstate South Carolina

Funding often involves multiple reviewers and a tight narrative. In the Upstate, the focus stays on the product and purchasing side so the scope is clear, defensible, and ready for review. Selections can be organized around durability, upkeep, and applicable standards, and cooperative contract routes can be shared when they help the process move forward. Grant writing is not provided, but dependable resource paths can be recommended.

Accessibility & Compliance

Grant reviewers often ask about ADA access and inclusive design. Equipment, surfacing, and layouts can be organized around ADA and ASTM considerations so routes, transfer points, and use zones are clearly documented. Compliance certification is not provided.

Durability & Life-Cycle Value

Funders want long-term results. Materials, finishes, and installation approaches can be selected with Upstate heat, storm cycles, and freeze-thaw conditions in mind, supporting durability and realistic upkeep.

Community Impact

Programs look for broad use. Pavilions, fitness stations, walking loops, and bleachers extend activity beyond the playground and demonstrate everyday value for the whole community.
To support a funding deadline, send the site location and the due date, along with any notes on what the project must include. A review-ready product package can then be organized for pricing and documentation, while your team completes the application narrative and forms.
