"LET THEM BE KIDS" is an all volunteer, non-profit organization created to build community capacity on the grassroots level; while building playgrounds, skate parks and fitness parks across Canada. These projects leave a legacy of community members who are inspired and better equipped to lay a strong foundation for a brighter tomorrow.

The Elizabeth Rummel School & Community Playground Project is a school directed initiative that will replace an outdated wooden play structure with a safer, enhanced and larger capacity structure on the joint-use land adjacent to the school. The project’s scope will include further enhancements to the outdoor and field area. The intention of this venture is to strengthen our sense of community and to inspire and empower all of our residents through involvement in this project from “conception” to “installation”.

New playground will be dedicated our local hero, May Riva!

May Riva, who will turn 93 in July, has led a life of active volunteerism. Up until last year she continued to drive and deliver for the local Meals on Wheels program. She is well-loved and regarded as an outstanding citizen of Canmore. The playground will be named May Riva Community Park and we will be honoured with her presence on Build Day!
"One great, strong, unselfish soul in every community could actually redeem the world."
