Pretty cool weekend. A chance to go back to my roots where it all started & help launch a new generation. Excited for @TownofNewmarket that has a team to call their own again. Welcome home fans. It’s going to be a great season! See u at the rink.

This is an awesome costume! Also serves as a great reminder for Halloween to consider making your trick or treating accessible where you can! Stairs and uneven paths can be a barrier for some kids and adults. Be safe, have fun!

“Finding those moments (of wonder) isn’t about being in the right state and time, it’s about being in the right state of mind”

Now that’s a wonderful sentiment.

Worth a few moments to watch this with Steve and his family.

Make your Halloween an inclusive one!

Halloween is coming up!

This #Halloween, remember to consider that inclines, stairs, curving walkways, etc. can be challenging for some trick-or-treaters to navigate. You can ensure your trick-or-treating station is free of barriers by following these helpful tips.

Thanks to everyone who joined us to support the @upplaygrounds Magic of Play Gala.

A special night raising funds and a glass to toast our friend Jim.

I was honoured to be there to host it.

Sunday AM strolls at Zachary’s & Jake’s. Filled with kids and the Magic of Play.

Jim was a driving force behind the growth of @upplaygrounds . His passion for inclusive play was part of the inspiration to create @VIPPlaygrounds to build truly inclusive playgrounds in Canada. We’re going to miss him a lot, but we will honour his legacy by continuing his work.

[John Bartlett @BartsBytes]

Deeply saddened by the loss of my friend Jim Vollmer. A great man and true champion for inclusive play. Jim passed away Friday, 5 years to the day of the dedication of Jake’s Field of Dreams, named after his son, who was a huge Blues and Cards fan and wanted to be a broadcaster.

[Very Inclusive Play Playgrounds Canada @VIPPlaygrounds]

We’re heartbroken to share the news of our dear friend and fellow champion for inclusive play, Jim Vollmer.

Our heartfelt condolences go out to Jim’s family and friends. ❤️

[Unlimited Play Inc @upplaygrounds]

Dear friends and supporters,

We began a new chapter at Unlimited Play when Jim Vollmer joined our team in 2016, after years of volunteering with us. We are saddened to share that Jim passed away on Friday, June 23, after a long battle with cancer.

Our full message is below.
