Kaboom selected us as one of the top 50 playground sites!






Help us win a $25,000 Playground Upgrade!






























Thank you for all your support!

We rallied our community to place us in the top 50 playspaces in the running for the Imagination Playstation in a Box.

Our playground could win an innovative Imagination Playground in a Box -- funded by Foresters.

We will know if we are among the 10 finalists on September 15, 2010. For more information visit the Kaboom.org website.
