When it's time to get out and play, children in Fishers and Indianapolis have plenty of nearby options. And it's not just residents who appreciate the dedication of these communities to play. Both cities were named a 2011 Playful City USA Community by KaBOOM!, a national program that advocates increased outdoor play opportunities for children.

Brooks School Park ADA Accessible Playground Fishers furthered the KaBOOM! goal of providing a park or playground within walking distance for every child by recently opening two new playgrounds, one of which is a fully-accessible ADA playground at Brooks School Park.

Indianapolis was honored for its innovative plans to convert abandoned housing and vacant lots into urban mini parks, which supports the KaBOOM! initiative to increase quantity and quality of play in a community. Full list of 2011 Playful City USA Communities.

Hey Pat! The accolades for Fishers just keep coming in and you do an outstanding job of letting the world know about it! I hope you Hamilton county folk think of your poor cousins to the northwest in Tippecanoe County from time to time! ^_~

Thanks for sharing this Pat. There are a couple of PG County MD Cities that made the list. Will have to write a blog about this also. Great post.

It is awesome that these two cities made that list. Being family oriented with parks and playgrounds within walking distance of every child is outstanding.
