#ICYMI: The new playground for Walker Upper Elementary is finally open!
SO glad I got to witness the ribbon cutting yesterday.
…It took everything in me to not go down the big slide. @CBS19News
Four days until we open the Walker playground! From now until Tuesday, we'll be counting down by recognizing community members who made the playground a reality.
A thread....
When an org that was going to help source construction for the Walker playground was no longer able to do so, we needed to raise a significant amt of $$ quickly to get construction started this summer. @CvilleCityHall & @CvilleSchools both stepped up and contributed over $40k. 🙌
Many Charlottesville individuals made financial contributions to the Walker playground. Thank you to each one of you. Thank you for believing in our children. Thank you for believing in the power of play to support their wellbeing.
