A shipment of parts for a new playground on its way to Ghana, in West Africa, as part of a project designed by a suburban Eagle Scout.
"It's going to be great, because it's going to help the community here by getting a new playground, and it's going to help the community in Ghana," he said. "I went to like 25 different park districts, and asked if they had any they were redoing, and it turns out that my own park district of Winnetka was redoing the Corwin. So they gave me that one," he said."This project is one piece of the community in Ghana and Winnetka's relationship. A couple of years ago, they built a library there, and this is like the final thing to make a community center.
