A spin-off charity from the Rick Meagher-Medigas Charity Golf Tournament has made a generous donation to help pay for the creation of a fully accessible playground at Parkdale Park, the home of the Field of Ability in Belleville.
The charity, organized through Medigas, now known as “Our Kids,” has donated $75,000 toward the cost of the playground which will be finished sometime this fall.
The new playground will feature a rubberized surface and offer play equipment suitable for any child.

Jack Miller has been on the tournament board, and worked with the program since its inception.
“Our Kids” and former Rick Meagher-Medigas board member Randy McFarland said that since 1988 the group has aimed to make life better for kids with physical challenges and that being able to donate toward the new playground was yet another accomplishment to be proud of.
