St. Alban's celebrates opening of new playground

Last week, St. Alban's Child Enrichment Center in the Village West celebrated the opening of their new playground. They also took the opportunity to give out very charming awards (small paintings), made by the children at the center, to the individuals that have been supportive to the center over recent years. Above are Liliana Dones, flanked by Katherine Sands and Dr. Franklin Sands.

Scenes from the new playground, which is interactively equipped with learning stations, so that even in play, children benefit from the learning tools that are found throughout the playground.
