The Playful Child is born
After Kade's death, his mother needed a way to continue to share Kade with the world. Very early on, it was decided that a playground and park would be the perfect way to honor Kade's memory. In order to raise funds for the project, Kade's mother formed a 501c3 non profit organization. While the park is a major focus for the new non profit, so is the ultimate goal of promoting play as an essential element of healthy total child development.
