\"\"<\/span><\/h3>\n

For ten years, OneAmerica<\/b> has demonstrated the importance of investing in each of their communities through their annual Week of Caring<\/i><\/b>. Playworks was (once again) thrilled to be a part of it this year. Both Playworks Indiana and Wisconsin created opportunities for OneAmerica employees to play last week during their Week of Caring.
\n<\/span><\/h3>\n

In Milwaukee, OneAmerica volunteers headed to St. Marcus Harambee Campus to launch some new game zones for elementary aged students through a Corporate Play Day. OneAmerica volunteers led and explained the rules of <\/span>Sharks and Minnows<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Switch<\/span><\/a>, and Challengers and Champions. Even though it was a hot day outside, both the students and volunteers had a great time getting active and playful in the gym!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In Indianapolis, we started the week with a Corporate Recess. This employee activation is an ideal and fun way to build community with your colleagues. A Playworks Indiana trainer led a group of over 25 OneAmerica employees in activities and playground classics like <\/span>Partner to Partner<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Ball Toss Race<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Tic Tac Toe Relay<\/span><\/a>, and <\/span>Foursquare<\/span><\/a>. In addition to being engaging, these games help teams build confidence, teamwork, collaboration, conflict resolution skills, and experience a little healthy competition. Participants shared with us that it was a great way to spend the afternoon with their teammates.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Playworks Indiana ended the week with OneAmerica with a Playground Beautification at George W. Julian School 57. Over the past two years, the PTSA at George Julian has raised funds to redesign and reconstruct their playground in honor of a student <\/span>killed in a crosswalk car crash while walking home from school in September 2021<\/span>. <\/span>Hannah\u2019s Memorial Playground was a community effort started by students who wanted to honor her memory. Playworks and OneAmerica helped to put the finishing touches on this special project. Volunteers repainted the basketball court, created a movement path, and painted new foursquare and hopscotch games. It was a wonderful day and we are so happy to be a part of Hannah\u2019s Memorial Playground. <\/span><\/p>\n

Our cross regional partnership with OneAmerica was memorable for both Playworkers and the One America team.
