Ben Shaffer Recreation and all of their staff are a joy to work with. They are always willing to work with you on any project you may have and make everything a breeze. They help in selecting the right products, installers and stand behind all of their products in the event something unforeseeable goes wrong.

Hopewell Valley Regional School District

I have enjoyed a very professional and ethical relationship with Ben Shaffer Recreation over the last twenty years. Ten years during my tenure at the Princeton Regional School District, and now in my twelfth year with the Hopewell Valley Regional School District.
Jaye Joyce freely offers playground code guidance, design services and warranty claim assistance when asked. She has even worked side by side with me during playground safety inspections of her equipment. Once, to her credit & my amazement, knee deep in the snow.
Her assistance has helped me enjoy statewide recognition for the playground safety programs here in the Hopewell Valley. As a result of my Playground Safety Inspections, requests for parts and warranty claims are quickly processed. Her presentations to PTO’s for new equipment are comprehensive, interesting and thorough. As a result, when choosing new play events, Ben Shaffer products are frequently chosen. The playground products Ben Shaffer represents have earned a deserved reputation for FUN, safety and durability.

It is my pleasure to provide a testimonial for Ben Shaffer Recreation and Jaye Joyce in particular. I have enjoyed a working relationship with Jaye for several years now in my current capacity within three different public school districts.

I have had the pleasure of working with Jaye Joyce and Ben Shaffer Recreation as we recently had a playground installed at our Nature Study site.
