Help Design a New Playspace for the Town of Bowling Green!
Come join us! We're building a new playspace for the kids of Bowling Green!

This leadership team will develop ideas and action steps to ensure a successful project. We’re looking for individuals who can commit to weekly one-hour planning calls over the next several weeks and lead in the following areas:
