A Dream Comes True

Fort Worth will unveil a new very special playground in a couple of weeks in Trinity Park.
It will be called Dream Park and with good reason. It has been the dream of three area women who have worked tirelessly and have raised approximately three million dollars to provide a playground for children of all abilities.
I went to the park to see how it was coming along. The area still had a fence around it and workmen scurrying about to finish it.

I am not sure how all of the equipment works, but I understand the swings will have a harness for children who need extra  upper body support,
and somewhere out there is a seesaw for children who are normally in a wheelchair.
I do know that the playground will be open to all children and will be free. Great job ladies and the City of Ft. Worth!

  4. Dearest Janey,
    Kudos to the persistence of three warrior ladies, standing up especially for those children that usually are left out.
