FORSYTHE PARK PLAYGROUND PROJECT. Please mention โplaygroundโ in memo when donating. ๐ฅฐ We are so grateful to those who supported our vision. To be continuedโฆ
The Miracles To Milestones Playground was completed in Destrehan, Louisiana in June of 2014. The day the concrete dried, we made our move to North Louisiana, and we were fortunate to join the West Monroe Civitan Club to assist with support and funding for an amazing inclusive playground, Smiles Park, in Kiroli Park in West Monroe, LA. Today, Benjamin Bear stands tall at the center of the playgrou

We are in the home stretch! Tomorrow is the day we need the ๐ช๐ป ๐ช๐ป ๐ช๐ป โผ๏ธโผ๏ธโผ๏ธ We have made SO much progress over the last two days and tomorrow is the day we need heavy lifting, moving and carrying all of the pieces. We are starting at Forsythe Park at 7 am and working most of the day. Please note that there is a 5k at the park at 9 am so it may be easier to park on Riverside and walk over but we would love any help!! We are almost there!!
๐ what started as a dream is quickly becoming a reality.
Seeing volunteers show up with work gloves, water bottles, friends, family members and willing hearts reminded us exactly why this project has come so far. This playground is being built by a community that cares deeply about its children and believes every child deserves a place to play.
We still need help today and tomorrow as we continue building and putting the finishing touches on the inclusive playground at Forsythe Park. Whether you can give an hour or the whole day, we would love to have you.
We truly would not be here without our volunteers, donors and this incredible community. Thank you for believing in this project and helping us create a place where all children can play as one. ๐

Thanks to this amazing community!!!
Monroeโs second inclusive playground is officially on the way to Forsythe Park! ๐
What does that mean? It means this new space is being designed for children, and adults, with different mobility needs, creating a place where everyone can play, explore, and belong.
Following the success of the Sister Margaret Ann SandersโJackson Inclusive Playground at Benoit Rec Center, weโre keeping the momentum going and continuing our commitment to building spaces where every child feels included.
A huge thank you to everyone who donated and believed in this project. Your generosity is whatโs turning this vision into real progress.
Youโll start seeing work soon, so please pardon our progress. Summer is coming, and while timelines can shift, our goal is to welcome families to this new play space as the season arrives. ๐๐
Stay tuned for updates, including opportunities to volunteer and be part of the build! For more on this project and its timeline, visit oneroe.city/parks

Today, Miracles to Milestones is honored to accept the Spread the Sunshine Challenge in support of The Tarver Braddock Foundation, an organization founded to honor the life of Tarver Braddock and continue his legacy of kindness, generosity and light in our community.
Standing at Forsythe Park, where our inclusive playground will open this spring, we're reminded that projects like this are only possible becuase of a community that shows up for one another. We are deeply grateful to the Tarver Braddock Foundation for being part of that journey and for this countless ways they continue to help families in need and spread sunshine across our community.
We are proud to make a donation in support of this mission, and now we are passing the sunshine along. We challenge Parterre, Ouachita Dental + Implant Center and John Rea Realty to join us: make a donation, perform a random act of kindness and challenge others to do the same.
Let's keep the sunshine going - for Tarver, his family, our community and for everyone that needs a little extra light! โ๏ธ ๐
It feels fitting to share this news on Christmas Eve. ๐
What started as a dream is now sitting right here in our city โ and with $40,000 to go, weโre closer than ever. If you or your business are looking for a way to make a lasting impact before the end of the year, weโd love to talk. Monroe City
