Loll Designs made a three year, $75,000 commitment to Growing Up Chester in 2021. Not only have they met that initial commitment, they have exceeded it! After donating an additional $20,000 in 2024, Loll then made a $5,000 gift in 2025 to bring the donation up to a total of $100,000. Loll Designs is the largest donor supporting Growing Up Chester.

Executive Director Dave Schaeffer says, “We are so appreciative of everyone at Loll Designs and their generosity. It is incredible that they chose to exceed their initial commitment to Growing Up Chester, and have now donated a total of $100,000! Their early support allowed us to have the match for a $2.3 million State grant, and this year’s donation ensured that we would receive the full match from a matching donor campaign. Future generations will benefit from the expanded and renovated Chalet, and we are so grateful to them.”
“We believe it is important to give back to our community and our planet,” said Eric Swanson, CEO of Loll Designs. “This year we are proud to once again support Chester Bowl Improvement Club’s programs for the Duluth community to appreciate and engage with nature in a healthy and safe environment.”

Thank you, Loll Designs, for your continued support for the Chester Bowl Community and our Growing Up Chester campaign to renovate and expand the Chalet. Your generosity will transform this building for the generations to follow.
