Once upon a time…
There was a Playground at Fawn Primary Center That was in Great Need of Repairs
Where the Wood was Faded and the Swings Outdated
Splinters From the Worn Wood Hurt Little Hands and Fingers and Oodles of Band-Aids Were Applied
Mr. Bennis and Renee Zrebny, a Paraprofessional at Fawn Primary Center,
Met to Discuss These Much Needed Playground Renovations
They Knew it was a Huge Project!
They Knew Help was Needed!
Soon after, Renee Zrebny attended a Bridal Shower with Karen Vecchi
When Renee Talked to Karen About the Conditions of the Playground and the Memorial Garden, Without
Hesitation, She Offered to Help.
Karen Was One of the Parents Responsible for the Initial Building of Kids Kountry
Dr. Bjalobok Immediately Gave the Go Ahead!!!
AND…
What At First Seemed Impossible Became Possible!
Because of the Generosity of Karen Vecchi, J.R. and Renee Zrebny, Local Businesses, and Community Members, the Transformation Began…
Pressure Washed
And Pressure Washed Again By Karen’s Helpers!
The Old Playground was Pressure Washed by Fawn #2 Fire Department
A Playground that is Kid-Friendly, Safe, and Fun was Born
Where…
The Swings are Held Up With Pixie Stix
JR and Renee Zrebny built a Horse with a Real Saddle…
A Whale Swims and Watches the
Children Play From Above
Weeds were Pulled, Trees Planted, and the Memorial Garden was Transformed…
Into a Wonderful, Beautiful Place of Peaceful and
Comforting Remembrance
To J.R. and Renee Zrebny and the Local
Businesses, and Community Members for Your Kindness and Generosity.
And a Special, Heartfelt
Thank You To…
Karen VecchiFor Your GenerosityFor Your Kindness
For Your SelflessnessAnd For Making Our Playground Such a
Wonderful, Magical Place
If the whole world was strewn with kind people like you, reasons for violence and anarchy would be very few. If everyone tried hard to be responsible and kind, an eye for an eye wouldn’t make the world blind. Thank you for being the epitome of a good human being.
