As those who contributed to the omidyar.net community prepare to venture forth to new and exciting places, we at KABOOM! wanted to send a note of thanks to all of you who, over the years, have been our friends, advocates for our mission, and supporters of the play movement. Thanks for following our progress and championing our cause. We have learned much from our friends on o.net, both online and offline, here on o.net directly and in other venues where we have worked with you. We appreciate the investment from the Omidyar Network in our move toward the many-to-many strategy, in applying the concepts of online community and interconnections to the play movement. What has resulted is a vibrant and growing advocacy-for-play program and a community-oriented web platform with online tools like community forums, a user-driven vendor rating system, and a Playspace Finder that is evolving into a citizen-built nationwide playspace directory. Come visit us often at www.kaboom.org and follow our progress and see what we’re up to, and thanks again to all our friends.

Thanks for the kind words, Dennis. And thanks to you and the others from KaBOOM! who've contributed so much to us here at omidyar.net and Omidyar Network.

I look forward to watching you and the rest of the folks at KaBOOM! continue to evolve and grow and achieve your vision of a great place to play within walking distance of every child in America.

Very nice indeed Dennis. I know Anne Marie, Cynthia Gentry and others have had wonderful times with all their KaBOOM! projects. And of course Tony is just a great guy. Great of you to drop in and offer such kind words. Kudos to you, keep up the great work and looking forward to watching KaBOOM! grow even more.
