KABOOM! Build Day & Celebration at Fairmont Park

Build Day Celebration
The community has spoken and a new playground design has been selected! Build Week for the new playspace at Fairmont Park will take place October 23 - 26 and we need your help to complete the project! KABOOM!, AWS InCommunities and Prince William County Department of Parks & Recreation (“DPR”) invite you, your family and friends to help us build the new playspace during Build Week, October 23 - 26. Building an entire playground is no easy feat. It will take several days and over 100 volunteers to get the job done! Join us Saturday, October 26 as we complete the project and celebrate this new playspace! Can we count on you?
