! As some of you may already be informed, Columbus Rec & Parks has agreed to rename the ADA Sports Pad at Rhodes Park on West Broad St. in honor of Ken. I anticipate a dedication ceremony in April, 2009 featuring speakers such as Buck Rinehart, Greg Lashutka and others who worked with Ken. I attach information about how to contribute to the Fund. We are purchasing a granite monument, a boulder, that will have Ken's name inscribed, literally, CARVED IN STONE, and installed at the park. Please circulate this info to anyone you know who knew/worked with Ken over
his decades of enthusiastic, persistent and tireless effort to make our world
more accessible. No contribution is too modest! To date we have raised $775.
Your donation can be made at any branch of the Huntington National Bank simply
make your check payable to the KEN CAMPBELL MEMORIAL FUND. Thank you for giving! Slides/Video from the Pioneers 2007 National Wheelchair Softball Tournament games in Minnesota.
