Brooklyn's Playground






For a few years the community has been working to build Brooklyn's Playground it is a playground that is a community-wide volunteer effort to build the first fully-inclusive playground for the Pocatello-Chubbuck area, a place where children of all abilities can come together, interact, and grow through play. It is a project that was inspired by a kindergartner at Abigail's school named Brooklyn that was born with spina-bifida. With the help of the community, her parents have raised over $500,000 to build this playground and it was built with volunteers. We visited the finished the playground for the first time last week and it was awesome. The kids had a blast.
