Local Community Comes Together To Build A Playground

Cumberland, RI—Civic Builders, Blackstone Valley Prep (BVP) Mayoral Academy and the surrounding community will come together on Saturday, September 13 between the hours of 9am – 2:30pm to build a playground for BVP Elementary School 2 at 52 Broad Street in Cumberland. There will be over 60 volunteers from Central Falls, Pawtucket, Cumberland and Lincoln.

Under the direction of Civic Builders, volunteers will work as a team, coming together in the name of community to build the state-of-the-art playground over the course of just one day.
