Many years ago, Bill and Marge Beasley, owners of the Curtis Sporting Goods of Bartlesville, shared their vision with a handful of friends to create an amusement park for children and decided to call it, “The Kiddie Park.” They all were willing to volunteer their time and efforts to see it come to life. As time went by, this handful of friends realized that for this vision to continue into the future, they must create a group of volunteers to manage the operations of the park. The Bartlesville Playground Association was established and a board of directors appointed of local people who were willing to volunteer their time to see the dream live on, that time honored tradition continues today. The only question remaining, is whether you want to donate your time for the good of the community. Indeed, the Kiddie Park knows the importance of volunteers and is truly blessed to have such loving and caring individuals, willing to help in any way they can. The Kiddie Park has a number of projects throughout the season that require volunteers to pitch in and help.
