❤️ Community Impact

Wallace Parks and Recreation is currently working on a project that would allow children with disabilities to be able to have a safe and accommodating playground to enjoy. We believe every child regardless of disability deserves the opportunity to have a normal childhood. Together we as a community can have an opportunity to play a part in making this happen! All proceeds from this year's 5K sign ups will go to help fund the new Inclusive Playground at Clement Park!
