Great Falls Celebrates Community With Inclusive Playground Debut

One of the best things about Great Falls is how the community looks after one another. Whether it's stepping up to help the county adopt animals that needed to be fostered or stepping up as a judge for a debate tournament, the people of Great Falls always rise to the occasion.

Now, the families of Great Falls can celebrate that community unity this Thursday with a special ceremony.

This was all made possible by the kids at Lewis & Clark who raised $65,300 for the playground paired with the Community Block Development Grant of $153,777.

The playground will be right across from the Montana School For the Deaf and Blind, giving students at the school the opportunity to enjoy the playground to its fullest without any limitations. The playground is also accessible for students and kids who use wheelchairs, again, giving everyone a chance to enjoy the playground.
