This year, ACTion Alexandria and our community has been all about Project Play, an effort to ensure that every child in Alexandria has a quality space to play. Working with our partners, Alexandria Childhood Obesity Action Network and Alexandria/Arlington Smart Beginnings, we've been able to accomplished a lot!

• We hosted the $15,000 Project Play Spruce Up Grant Contest.
• We helped bring a $75,0000 STARS KaBOOM! playground project, sponsored by the Washington Capitals, to Old Town.
• We've been a big supporter of the Project Play city-wide assessment of playspaces.

So you can imagine how excited we were to hear that Project Play has acheived yet another goal. Alexandria has been named a Playful City by KaBOOM!
