More than 200 friends and volunteers of NBA All-Star and Shreveport native Antawn Jamison, Community Renewal International, Bellaire Baptist Church, organizers from KaBOOM! and residents of the local community joined forces on Thursday, Sept. 6 to build a new, safe playground across the street from the Friendship House (1202 St. Charles St.). The new playground's design is based on drawings provided by children who attended a Design Day event in July!

The new playground provides hundreds of children in Bossier City with a safe place to play. The play space is one of more than 225 KaBOOM! will lead across the country in 2008 in an effort to provide a great place to play within walking distance of every child in America.
