Six year old Miss Emma helps Project Sevier promote the All-Inclusive playground project for Sevier County through this video that will draw you into Miss E's world.  As you watch the video notice she is on a regular playground and she is playing alone.  If other kids were on the playground Miss Emma would have an even greater difficulty playing.  Help Miss Emma bring a playground to Sevier County that will allow every child, even those without special needs, a place to play. This playground will allow kids to learn from one another and it doesn't separate the special needs from everyone else.  Let's All Play Together!

Country Tonite Theatre recently donated over $5,000 to Project Sevier, Inc. a non-profit organized for development of an all-inclusive playground where children with special needs can play along side other children throughout the entire playground. Jeff Taylor, with Country Tonite Theatre “As a parent of a special needs child, I understand the importance of having a playground available to families in Sevier County. Physical play is crucial to the motor development of young children with special needs.” To Learn how you can help make this playground a reality by contacting Project Sevier, Inc. at 865-368-5455 or visiting their website atwww.projectsevier.blogspot.com.
