Join Cashiers area school children as they imagine a large and extraordinary community playground. Learn how they raised the necessary resources to create a wooden village of walkways and towers, swings and balance beams, bridges and stairways, tunnels to crawl through and rock walls to climb. Then, watch as hundreds of volunteers work to overcome considerable challenges and build the playground in The Village Green.

“Cashiers, Come Play With Me” tells the true story of the Village Play and how it helped to “build community from the “play”ground up!” Written by Ann Self and illustrated by artist Kat Ford, the book is a powerful reminder of what is possible when everyone works together to accomplish what seems impossible.

Children of all ages will enjoy this find be inspired to find ways to work together to benefit where they live, work and play.
