“Some of my favorite childhood memories are from playing on the playground. It’s where we learn to explore and try new things. Unfortunately, playgrounds can be overlooked when school funding is thin. I’m so happy we’re partnering with Play & Park Structures to help a school’s students get active and play so that they, too, can build those memories that last a lifetime. This isn’t just something that will impact kids in the next school year; it will keep giving for years to come!” says J-Si Chavez, host of The Kidd Kraddick Morning Show.
