Wide receiver Romby Bryant lends a professional hand.
Baltimore -- Wouldn't it be great to have a new school playground? How about if you could help design the equipment? Sounds like a dream, huh? Now, just imagine all that AND having NFL players and coaches then came to your school and put together the equipment for you and your classmates.
Well, that all actually happened at the Collington Square School in Baltimore, Maryland. Kids drew designs of ideal playground equipment they'd like, and the NFL took a look and approved. Then, a few weeks later, several Baltimore Ravens including Romby Bryant, Ativah Ellison, Bart Scott and Derrick Mason (to name a few) and coaches, along with over 300 volunteers, converged on Collington Square School and totally transformed the yard into a very cool playground. The School's new playground is now a recess tag zone for more than 500 kids!
Ravens cut the ribbon - unleashing the fun on the new playground!
The NFL is dedicated to working to help kids tackle swings, slides and open fields. So, be creative, keep on drawing, and one day some NFL stars may just end up building your dream playground!
