In early November of 2014, Carter’s Kids went to Carter’s Kids hometown of Traverse City and built a playground for the great people of East Bay Township.
Grace Macdonald Park was the location for this playground and while the weather was cold and damp, there was an amazing group of local volunteers that worked extremely hard and made the playground happen!
Volunteers, donations and corporate sponsors make Carter’s Kids possible.
Thank you to all the people that make Carter’s Kids happen. Your donations and volunteer work have made playgrounds possible across the country.
