Playground Pop-Up: Outdoor Olympics with Music Play Patrol
Get your body moving with an Olympic-themed program with Fairmount Park Conservancy and Music Play Patrol at the Anna C. Verna Playground on Saturday, July 20 from 9:30–11:30 AM. The Olympics are around the corner so join them to celebrate with a series of fun games and exercises…and even leave with your own medal. Let the games begin!
Launched in 2010 by musician/educator Frank Coates, Music Play Patrol (MPP) was founded based on one concept – that children, no matter where they come from or which school district they attend, should have access to a high-quality educational experience. MPP provides music as well as sports education to schools, summer camps, festivals/events, and more.
