The
playground, which has seen a lot of use, was in desperate need of a total face
lift, so the ATPD partnered once again with the Kiwanis Club of Anderson Hills
to incorporate $49,000 of renovations. The
fundraising was a three year effort to create
a unique and innovative play space, accessible to children of varying abilities.
