A New Park for Historic Chimborazo

The Historic Church Hill community of Chimborazo got a great new addition today. The Friends of Chimborazo with help from Kaboom! and Home Depot, built a new racing themed playground, sixteen community garden plots, three compost bins, an arbor, a community bulletin board, blackboards and a kid's teepee.

Earlier this year the Friends of Chimborazo applied for and was awarded a grant to build the new playground from Kaboom!. Kaboom! is a nonprofit organization that partners with communities and funding partners to build playgrounds across the country. Home Depot was the funding partner for the Chimborazo playground.

Many thanks to the Home Depot employees, Nascar driver Joey Logano, and countless Church Hill residents and business for volunteering their time today.
