Great expectations of fun

Kerian Burris of Kennewick and grandsons Silas Richards, 4, and Rylen Richards, 3, found the Toyota Playground of Dreams still closed Friday in Kennewick’s Columbia Park because of a $1 million rebuilding project.

The popular attraction is to be done in time for Memorial Day weekend at the end of the month.

The new playground structures comply with modern safety standards and include features to accommodate children with physical and other disabilities.

City officials and local business leaders plan a groundbreaking ceremony on May 8 to release more details about the project.
