A twenty-year-old playground in Andrews that's considered a community staple, was re-built with special features, making it accessible and entertaining for everyone.

Over six hundred students took a field trip today for the re-opening of Kid's Kingdom.

The community helped build the wooden playground in 1979, now twenty years later, the community was ready for an upgrade.

"It needed the facelift,” Andrews Mayor Flora Braly said. “It served us well for twenty years, and we wanted it to go back in the same place."

It returned with special features. A braille wall, Spanish to English translations, and musical games.'

"It has things that won't hurt kids with special needs, but it'll be fun for all the kids, Braly said.

The Kid's Kingdom ribbon cutting showed the community this isn't your average playground and it's fun for children of all ages.

"It's awesome,” Matthew Hada said. “It's got all kinds of equipment. Lots of towns don't get to have this good of a park and it's great to have this good of a park in Andrews."

And the best part? The entire $750,000 to build the playground was paid for by waste control specialists... So it didn't cost the taxpayers to enjoy this new place to play.
