During the Elk Grove city council meeting on Wednesday, September 23, 2009, the Playground Partners and several of its members who put in many volunteer hours were awarded a Certificate of Appreciation from the City of Elk Grove.
The award acknowledges volunteers’ “hard work and dedication to the community as a member of the Playground Partners, a non-profit organization formed under the Consumnes Services District”
The certificate goes on to say “Through your generous volunteer efforts, the unique playground at Morse Community Park will provide social, environmental, economic and health benefits for generations to come”
I was deeply honored to be one of the recipients of these certificates, and it makes me smile when I take my daughters out to play on the park that I contributed to. Being a part of Playground Partners has made me feel closer and more connected to my community, and I hope I can continue to give back when I can.
You can get that same feeling by joining the Playground Partners on upcoming park projects in our area.
