About KaBOOM!
Is there a rundown, rusted, or abandoned playground in your hometown? The national nonprofit KaBOOM! is on a mission to find the country's scariest playgrounds so we can start awarding grants to fix 'em. Submit a picture using our "Scary Playgrounds" mobile app for a chance to win a $2,000 VISA gift card!
The scarier the playground, the better chance you have to win! One second-place winner will get $1,000 VISA gift card, one third-place winner will get a $500 gift card, and seven runners-up will get $100 gift cards.
Our vision is a playground within walking distance of every child. Help us by identifying the playground in your hometown that needs the most TLC.
