Comment (5) on Treehouse for Medically Fragile Kids (0) in Children - Youth - FamiliesHad a great meeting at Camp Twin Lakes. They said I could run with the treehouse.
An interesting place to start is with programming. The director said that he had seen the treehouse at the Hole in the Wall Camp in Connecticut. They enjoyed it but...Updated 32 weeks ago, Tagged by: Cynthia Gentry (CCAL30)

Comment (0) on Treehouse for Medically Fragile Kids (0) in Children - Youth - FamiliesHey, Norbert,
I've actually got to research the implications of using the term "barrier-free". I think it is pretty well defined by some deparment of the US government. It's just been a couple of years since I did hands on work with playgrounds so...Updated 34 weeks ago, Tagged by: Cynthia Gentry (CCAL30)
