Wheelchair Skateboarding: Simply Amazing!
I've never seen anyone wheelchair skateboarding before. These pictures are of Scott Horton, the son of my friend Joan, and they are mind boggling. I'll have to do some research. I don't know anything about wheelchair skateboarding, where you can do it, what you need in a skatepark to do it... but I'm going to find out! This guy is incredible!

Seems like "the" guy in the sport is Aaron Fotheringham. He calls it "hard core sitting." That's a great name.

Play Champions of the Year
There just aren't enough words to thank the folks at Landscape Structures for all they are doing to make creative play happen for the children of Atlanta.
LSI took the new playground at Woodruff Park off of the drawing board and made it come alive. They made the PlayChastain Exploratorium happen for the families and children of north Atlanta.
Landscape Structures has gone above and beyond and their efforts are greatly appreciated.
Congratulations to LSI, ATOP's Play Champions of the Year 2012!

Ethan's grandmother gave him a gift of $25. He gave $20 to ATOP so more Atlanta kids will have great places to play. He kept $5 to get something cool for himself. We think Ethan is pretty cool!
