Children who attend the brand new Chicago Child Care Society (CCCS) Englewood Preschool Center recently had a chance to design the playgrounds of their dreams.
On March 3, representatives from the nonprofit organization KaBOOM! sat down with the children to talk about and draw their ideas for the two new playgrounds that will be built on May 2, on lots adjacent to 7000 S. Parnell Ave., where the Preschool is located.
One playground will be for use by the children who attend the Preschool, and the other will be available to all neighborhood children.
Along with CCCS and KaBOOM!, corporate sponsor Wells Fargo and 150 volunteers from the community will help build the new playgrounds.
Watch the CCCS website and this Portal for more information on how to volunteer; registration will begin on April 1.
