RN-T.com - McHenry wins 25 000 grant for playground thanks to community support

It truly does take a village to raise a child.

Congratulations to everyone at McHenry. And we all must thank Ms. Penny Pryor for recongnizing that all the children should play on the playground - so she set out to write the proposal to Pepsi to make a difference in some very special children's lives. Thank you to everyone in our community who voted and helped to spread the word and make this a possibility for McHenry....by taking it all the way to the top!

I can't wait to post pictures of Ivey playing on the new playground.

This is awesome, Gwen. My mom is a principal at a school in NY which just got a new playground like the one McHenry is going to get. I saw it for the first time this summer, and she says that it has just been amazing for the kids at her school. So happy for Ivey and the other kids!!

Thank you all so much for taking time to share this milestone with our family. It is so great that you all are a part of our lives just as Ivey is a part of yours. And yes, I will give our reason for going with green. As soon as I get all of the pictures downloaded I will post more. There are only 300 or so to choose from! If you haven't left Ivey a comment, please do. Someday when she is older she will marvel at the love and prayer that surrounds her - in all the moments of her life. gwen
